Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Tuesday that it's "very unlikely" Martinez (back) will join the team on their upcoming road trip, which begins Friday in Los Angeles and runs through April 24 in San Francisco, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Based on Mendoza's comments, Martinez won't be ready to make his Mets debut until April 26, at the earliest. Martinez injured his back earlier this month while playing for Single-A St. Lucie, with whom he reported to for the start of the season after he wasn't available for spring training due to his late signing. He had been slated to begin swinging a bat Monday and is expected to resume playing in minor-league games later this week.

Stewart is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Stewart was held out of the lineup the past two games with the Mets facing left-handed starters, and he's sitting again Tuesday with righty Jared Jones pitching for Pittsburgh. Francisco Alvarez will rest his legs as the designated hitter while Omar Narvaez receives a start behind the plate.

Bryant (back/ribs) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

It's the third straight start Bryant has missed after he had to be removed from Saturday's game versus the Blue Jays due to soreness in his right ribcage and back. The Rockies will roll with Charlie Blackmon at designated hitter, Elehuris Montero at first base and Michael Toglia in right field.

Ohtani went 1-for-3 with two runs and a stolen base Monday in a loss to the Nationals.

Ohtani extended his on-base streak to 15 games with a first-inning single that led to the Dodgers' first run. The slugger also reached on catcher's interference in the sixth frame, and he subsequently stole second base, reached third on a wild pitch and scored the team's second run on a Will Smith groundout. Ohtani is giving the Dodgers consistent offensive production out of the No. 2 slot in the lineup, slashing .338/.384/.648 with four homers, 10 RBI, 15 runs and three stolen bases through 86 plate appearances.

Carpenter (oblique) is currently traveling with the Cardinals and took infield practice in Arizona over the weekend, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Sidelined since early April with a right oblique strain, Carpenter seems to be making progress in his recovery, though it's unclear where he stands in his hitting progression. With that, a return timetable is still up in the air for the 14-year veteran. Carpenter appeared in three games -- including a couple starts at DH -- for the Cardinals early on this season, going 3-for-10 with three singles and a run scored.

Bryant (back/ribs) remained out of the lineup for Monday's game in Philadelphia.

Bryant had to be lifted from Saturday's game versus the Blue Jays due to soreness in his right ribcage and back and he's now missed a second straight start. He is considered day-to-day. Elehuris Montero will be at first base, Michael Toglia is in right field and Charlie Blackmon will be at designated hitter.

Martinez (back) is expected to begin swinging a bat again Monday, and he should resume his minor-league assignment later this week, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.

The veteran designated hitter hasn't played for Single-A St. Lucie since April 6 due to back tightness, and he received an injection Tuesday to speed his recovery. Assuming he gets back into the St. Lucie lineup this week, Martinez could be in line to make his Mets debut before the end of the month.

Canario will be recalled from Triple-A Iowa prior to Monday's game in Arizona, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

The Cubs have yet to make the transaction official, so it's unclear whose spot Canario will be taking on the 26-man active roster. The 23-year-old is off to a nice start with Iowa, slashing .269/.377/.481 with two home runs in 13 contests. Canario will likely operate in a reserve outfielder role during his time with the Cubs.

Machado went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, a walk and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Dodgers.

Machado opened up the scoring with a deep drive to center field in the fourth off James Paxton and later singled and scored in the sixth. Sunday was the first time since April 6 he did not strike out, and he's now riding an eight-game hit streak while slashing .333/.371/.545 with two homers, three RBI and seven runs scored over that span.

Ozuna went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run, a double and four RBI in Sunday's 9-7 win over the Marlins.

Ozuna notched an RBI double in the top of the seventh inning before launching a three-run homer off reliever Tanner Scott in the ninth, giving Atlanta a 9-7 lead. The long ball was his seventh of the season, and the 33-year-old extended his hit streak to 13 games. On the year, Ozuna is batting .373 with the seven homers, 21 RBI and 11 runs scored over 59 at-bats in 14 contests.
