Baez will bat cleanup and play shortstop Saturday against the Reds, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Baez figures to be the Mets' everyday shortstop until Francisco Lindor (oblique) returns, at which point he'll likely fill the starting second base role. The 28-year-old had a .248/.292/.484 slash line in 91 games with Chicago this season.
