  • Mets' Abraham Almonte: Gets call from Triple-A

    The Mets selected Almonte's contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.

    While he won't be included in the Mets' lineup Monday against Cubs left-hander Drew Smyly, the switch-hitting Almonte could emerge as a short-side platoon player for the Mets. With Starling Marte (groin) going on the injured list in a corresponding move, the Mets are left with three other outfielders on the active roster (Brandon Nimmo, DJ Stewart and Rafael Ortega) that are all left-handed hitters. Almonte, who last saw action in the big leagues with the Red Sox in 2022, was hitting .228 with 11 home runs over 118 plate appearances at Syracuse prior to his call-up.

  • Mets' Abraham Almonte: Not close to returning

    Manager Buck Showalter said Monday that Almonte (calf) is not close to returning, Michael Mayer of Metsmerized reports.

    Almonte was removed from last Thursday's spring game with left calf soreness and had his exited labeled as precautionary, but it appears the injury is worse than initially expected. Almonte wasn't going to make the Opening Day roster regardless of the injury, and it sounds like he might get a late start at Triple-A Syracuse.

    Almonte will be held out of action Friday as a precaution, but it's not considered to be a serious issue. The journeyman outfielder has gone 7-for-14 so far in Grapefruit League play, though he sits far on the outside for an Opening Day roster spot in Queens even at 100 percent health.

    Almonte was traded from the Brewers to the Red Sox on Monday in exchange for cash considerations.
