  • Mets' Anthony Baptist: Serving suspension

    Baptist is currently suspended for lying about his age/identity when he signed with the Mets for $1.1 million in January 2023, Michael Mayer of MetsmerizedOnline.com reports.

    The report doesn't expand on the details of Baptist's actual age or the length of the suspension, and his birth dates have not been adjusted on MLB's official websites. A speedy, lefty-hitting center fielder, Baptist slashed .276/.426/.476 with two home runs and 12 steals in 32 games in the Dominican Summer League, but those numbers would be much less impressive if Baptist were actually 18 instead of 17 last summer.

  • Mets' Drew Smith: Kicks off rehab assignment

    Smith (shoulder) began a rehab assignment Wednesday with Triple-A Syracuse, giving up one run on one hit over an inning of relief.

    Smith served up a solo home run but otherwise navigated a 13-pitch eighth inning without much difficulty. The right-hander has been on the 15-day injured list since April 27 with shoulder inflammation and could need another rehab appearance or two before rejoining the Mets bullpen.

  • Mets' Boston Baro: Back in action at Single-A

    Baro (hand) was cleared to make his season debut for Single-A St. Lucie on April 30 and has gone 4-for-18 with a triple, six walks, six walks, one run and two stolen bases through his first six games with the affiliate.

    Baro got off to a delayed start to the 2024 season after suffering a hamate fracture in spring training, but he's hit the ground running since joining St. Lucie at the end of April. The injury hasn't affected his keen eye at the plate, as Baro has drawn six walks against five strikeouts thus far.

  • Mets' Jose Quintana: Mets-Cardinals postponed Wednesday

    Quintana and the Mets won't face the Cardinals on Wednesday after the game was postponed due to inclement weather in St. Louis, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    The two teams will make up the game Aug. 5. Assuming Quintana wasn't too overtaxed from his warmup prior to Wednesday's game being postponed, he could have his next start pushed back to Friday's series opener versus Atlanta following Thursday's team off day.

  • Mets' Starling Marte: Getting Wednesday off

    Marte is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Marte had started each of the Mets' first seven games of May, going 6-for-30 (.200 average) with one extra-base hit (a double) and one stolen base. His absence Wednesday looks to be little more than a maintenance day as the Mets and Cardinals wrap up their series with a day game after a night game.

  • Mets' Jeff McNeil: Receiving breather Wednesday

    McNeil is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    McNeil is likely just sitting out as part of a planned rest day, as he had started each of the Mets' last 30 games dating back to April 5. Joey Wendle will fill in for McNeil at the keystone.

  • Mets' Tomas Nido: Retreating to bench Wednesday

    Nido is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Nido will get a breather for the day game after he started behind the dish in both of the first two contests of the series. Omar Narvaez will form a battery with starting pitcher Jose Quintana on Wednesday.

  • Mets' Cole Sulser: Sent back to minors

    The Mets optioned Sulser to Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.

    He's clearing out to make room on the roster for Yohan Ramirez, who was claimed off waivers from the Orioles earlier this week. Sulser holds a 9.64 ERA and 7:3 K:BB across 4.2 relief innings during his time with the Mets this season.

  • Mets' Christian Scott: Draws another start Friday

    Scott is scheduled to start Friday's game against Atlanta at Citi Field.

    One of the top pitching prospects in the organization, Scott impressed in his MLB debut this past Saturday against the Rays, striking out six over 6.2 innings while allowing one run on five hits and one walk. Despite his stellar debut and strong track record in the minors, the 24-year-old righty likely won't have much margin for error moving forward if he hopes to maintain a spot in the big-league rotation. The Mets have gotten excellent production from three other rotation members (Luis Severino, Sean Manaea and Jose Butto) this season, and while Jose Quintana has struggled (5.20 ERA, 1.54 WHIP in seven starts), his long track record in the majors as well as his $13 million salary for 2024 likely gives him some level of security. Additionally, the Mets could get Tylor Megill (shoulder) back from the 15-day injured list next week, so a poor outing from Scott on Friday could put him at risk of a demotion to Triple-A Syracuse.

  • Mets' Adam Ottavino: Picks up shaky save

    Ottavino got the save in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Cardinals, allowing one run on two hits and a walk while striking out two in the ninth.

    Ottavino was called upon to close the game out after Edwin Diaz had pitched back-to-back days Sunday and Monday. The right-hander surrendered a one-out home run to Lars Nootbaar and then allowed the next two batters to reach, but ultimately got himself out of trouble by striking out Paul Goldschmidt and Alec Burleson to end the game. Ottavino has now given up three runs over his last 2.2 innings and is due for some rest having pitched three of the last four days. He now owns a 3.14 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 24:5 K:BB in 14.1 innings.

  • Mets' Pete Alonso: Big day at plate in win

    Alonso went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double, three RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Cardinals.

    Alonso finally showed some signs of life at the plate Tuesday night after breaking out of a slump. Before his two-RBI double in the fifth, Alonso had one hit over his last 41 at-bats. He later followed things up with a huge insurance home run in the eighth to put the Mets up 7-4. Alonso is now slashing just .212/.297/.445 with nine homers, 19 RBI, 22 runs and a 14:32 BB:K in 155 plate appearances, though Tuesday's outburst showed some welcoming signs that his offense could be emerging once again.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Goes deep again

    Nimmo went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer and a walk in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Cardinals.

    Nimmo got the Mets going with a three-run blast off Miles Mikolas in the fifth to knot the game up at 3-3. He's now homered in back-to-back games and has at least a hit in six straight with seven RBI over that span. For the year, the 31-year-old is hitting .229/.377/.412 with five homers, 25 RBI, 20 runs and a 25:32 BB:K in 162 plate appearances.

  • Mets' Jose Butto: Grabs win over Cardinals

    Butto (1-2) got the win Tuesday over the Cardinals, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out three over five innings.

    Butto got off to a rocky start, surrendering a leadoff home run to Brendan Donovan and another two runs in the opening frame. He was able to settle in the rest of the way, tossing four shutout innings despite having shaky command all night. Butto only threw 47 out of 89 pitches for strikes and walked multiple batters for a fourth straight start while his three punchouts were a season low. Butto owns a 3.00 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 34:17 K:BB in 33 innings and tentatively lines up for a rough start against the Phillies early next week.

  • Mets' David Peterson: Nearly perfect in second rehab start

    Peterson (hip) struck out four and allowed one hit and no walks over three innings Friday for Single-A St. Lucie in the second start of his rehab assignment.

    Peterson has now permitted just one baserunner while striking out nine over his first two rehab starts with St. Lucie and could be ready for a stiffer test with a higher-level affiliate. He built up to 41 pitches (23 strikes) on Friday and will likely need to bring his count up to around 75 before the Mets feel comfortable bringing him back from the 60-day injured list. After opening the season on the shelf while he continued his recovery from left hip surgery, Peterson won't be eligible for activation until late May.

  • Mets' Tylor Megill: Making another rehab start

    Megill (shoulder) will make another rehab start for Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

    Megill has fared well across his first two rehab outings, giving up one earned run through 4.2 innings while striking out 10 batters without surrendering a walk. If Sunday's start ends up being the 28-year-old's final rehab appearance, he would be lined up to potentially start for the Mets on Friday, May 17 in Miami.

  • Mets' Harrison Bader: Out again Tuesday

    Bader is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in St. Louis.

    It's the second straight day Bader has been out of the lineup, although he did contribute a pinch-hit double Monday (before being thrown out on the bases). Brandon Nimmo is in center field and DJ Stewart will occupy left.
