In Saturday's lineup
Polanco (Achilles) will start at designated hitter and bat third against the Athletics on Saturday.
Analisi
Polanco has been in and out of the Mets' lineup recently with Achilles problems and sat out the Mets' last two games following his Achilles bursitis diagnosis, but he's seemingly feeling well enough to return to the starting nine Saturday. The 32-year-old has slashed .200/.289/275 across his first 45 plate appearances with New York.

Diagnosed with Achilles bursitis
Polanco underwent an MRI on Thursday and has been diagnosed with Achilles bursitis, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Analisi
It's good news for Polanco, as he will not require a stint on the injured list and is expected to be available off the bench Friday against the Athletics. With Polanco getting the night off Friday, Ronny Mauricio is starting at third base, and Bo Bichette will serve as the designated hitter. Through his first 45 plate appearances with the Mets, Polanco is slashing .200/.289/.275 with three doubles, one RBI, two runs scored and a 5:6 BB:K.

Remains out of lineup Friday
Polanco (Achilles) is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics.
Analisi
Polanco went 0-for-4 at the plate Wednesday against Arizona and was out of the lineup for Thursday's series finale. Manager Carlos Mendoza said Thursday that Polanco could require a stint on the injured list, though Polanco said Friday that his Achilles is feeling better, and he doesn't believe a trip to the IL will be necessary, according to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. With Polanco idle Friday, Bo Bichette is at designated hitter, and Ronny Mauricio is batting seventh and playing third base.

May require IL stint
Manager Carlos Mendoza said Thursday that Polanco may need to be placed on the injured list to allow his Achilles to heal, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
Analisi
Mendoza said that Polanco's Achilles tendinitis began to bother him again after Wednesday's game, which is why he's absent from Thursday's lineup. This is already the second time this month that Polanco has had to miss a start due to problems with his Achilles, and although he's considered day-to-day for now, the Mets may be forced to put him on the shelf for a while if he continues to suffer regular setbacks.

Sitting down Thursday
Polanco isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Analisi
Polanco will step out of the lineup Thursday after going 4-for-17 with a double over his last four games. His absence will move Francisco Alvarez into the DH spot while Luis Torrens starts behind the plate and bats eighth.
