Mets' Luis Torrens: Three hits in Monday's start
Luis Torrens went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, a run scored and three RBI in Monday's rout of the Twins.Getting the start behind the plate and batting eighth with Francisco Alvarez nursing a sore shoulder, Torrens did most of his damage with a two-run double in the seventh inning.

Mets' Luis Torrens: Drives in three against Bucs
Luis Torrens went 3-for-4 with a double, a run scored and three RBI in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Pirates.Getting the nod behind the plate after Francisco Alvarez took a Paul Skenes fastball off his elbow Friday, Torrens opened the scoring with a bases-loaded double in the third inning. He hasn't fallen out of the game plan completely since Alvarez returned from the injured list about a month ago -- Torrens has started four of the last seven games, three at catcher and one at DH, and manager Carlos Mendoza will likely continue to find way to get him into the lineup given his .317/.364/.610 slash line with three homers in 44 plate appearances since joining the New York Mets.

Mets' Luis Torrens: Sticks around as No. 2 catcher
Luis Torrens is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.Torrens will take a seat for the second day in a row after closing out the weekend with his third consecutive start, but the 28-year-old journeyman has performed well enough since joining the team May 31 to stick around with the big club over fellow backstop Tomas Nido, who was designated for assignment Tuesday. Francisco Alvarez came off the 10-day injured list Tuesday and should see the bulk of the starts at catcher moving forward, even though Torrens has produced three extra-base hits through his first 18 plate appearances with the New York Mets.
