New York Mets right fielder Starling Marte was placed on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a bone bruise in his right knee.
The move, which was retroactive to Sunday, came after testing on Marte's ailing knee Monday. It marks the eighth time he's been on the IL since 2016.
In a corresponding move, the Mets called up outfielder Ben Gamel from Triple-A Syracuse ahead of Tuesday's series opener against the New York Yankees.
Marte, 35, left Saturday's game against the Chicago Cubs in the second inning after missing three games earlier this month with knee pain.
