Travis d’Arnaud has appeared in three rehab games with Double-A Binghamton, catching a total of 12 innings and serving as the team’s designated hitter in the other.
On Tuesday, Terry Collins said d’Arnaud will catch today and tomorrow for the B-Mets, at which point the club could activate the catcher in time for the first game of their three-game series against the Nationals on Friday.
Collins has said d’Arnaud would need 20-25 at-bats before being activated. He is 4-for-11 during his assignment with Binghamton.
D’Arnaud has been on the 15-day disabled list with a sprained left elbow. He has played in 19 games for the Mets this season.
