PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Brandon Nimmo the designated hitter expects to be ready for Opening Day. Brandon Nimmo the left fielder isn’t quite as sure. A day after appearing in his first Grapefruit League game since receiving a gel injection in his sore right knee, Nimmo expressed optimism regarding

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- In a vacuum, Jeff McNeil’s injury is “a minor hiccup,” as the second baseman put it -- an unfortunate case of a right oblique strain with two weeks to go until Opening Day. It should not sideline McNeil past mid-April. Only from a wider lens

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- The Mets’ lineup was dealt a blow this weekend, as Francisco Alvarez suffered a fractured hamate bone in his left hand, an injury that will require surgery. Alvarez is expected to miss 6-8 weeks, though given that the injury is to his receiving hand, the

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- In A.J. Minter’s estimation, the left-hander remains slightly ahead of schedule in his bid to be ready for Opening Day … which isn’t the same thing as saying he’ll definitely be there. At this point in Minter’s progression back from left hip surgery, he isn’t

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Over the offseason, Mets officials made a strategic decision to build their rotation based on depth rather than ceiling. Instead of pursuing the top arms available in free agency, the team cast a wider net, bringing eight big league-tested starting pitchers to camp. That number

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- The Mets’ bench competition experienced some early upheaval on Sunday, when infielder Nick Madrigal dislocated his left shoulder. Manager Carlos Mendoza announced on Monday that an MRI had revealed a fracture in the shoulder, and that Madrigal would be "out for [a] long time."

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- This winter, the Mets constructed their pitching staff upon a foundation of depth. Rather than target the best starters available, the Mets acquired multiple lesser options, hoping to guard against attrition and injury. They entered camp feeling comfortable about the interchangeability of their top eight

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- By late October, Brandon Nimmo says, the pain level in his left foot had reached an “eight or nine out of 10.” Nimmo still doesn’t know what he did to aggravate his plantar fasciitis in National League Division Series Game 3, but tweak it he

NEW YORK – Before Brandon Nimmo could hobble back out to left field for the fourth inning on Thursday night at Citi Field, Mets teammate Francisco Lindor gave him a hug and a pat on the chest. “I told him, ‘I appreciate what you're doing for us,’” Lindor said. “It's

NEW YORK -- The Mets don’t yet know who they’ll play in the National League Championship Series. They do know it will start on Sunday. And they’re pretty certain Jeff McNeil will be part of it. McNeil, who has been sidelined since Sept. 6 due to a fractured right wrist,

PHILADELPHIA -- Earlier this week, Jeff McNeil was in bed with his wife, Tatiana, in a California hospital room as the couple waited for their second child to arrive. In the ninth inning of a two-run game in Milwaukee, Pete Alonso came to the plate with two men on base.

PHILADELPHIA -- Until now, Kodai Senga's season has been an almost uninterrupted string of inaction. In the early days of Spring Training, Senga suffered a shoulder injury that was supposed to cost him a month or so. It ended up robbing him of far more time than that, keeping the

MILWAUKEE -- Toward the end of his night of misfortune, Francisco Alvarez walked gingerly off the field with a trainer’s hand wrapped around his waist. Alvarez had already endured a lamentable evening at American Family Field, allowing five stolen bases and getting called out on strikes in an at-bat that

ATLANTA -- Had rain not interfered, Francisco Lindor would have played. The Mets received that measure of good news on Wednesday, as the four-time All-Star was set to start as their leadoff hitter and shortstop against the Braves at Truist Park. That game and Thursday’s series finale were both postponed

ATLANTA -- If the Mets could take any whiff of optimism from their 5-1 loss to the Braves on Tuesday, it was the image of Francisco Lindor appearing in the on-deck circle with two outs in the ninth. For much of the game at Truist Park, Lindor stayed warm, swinging

NEW YORK -- Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor said Sunday that he’s unlikely to play without back pain again this season, but he continues to progress toward a return that could occur as soon as Tuesday in Atlanta. “If I play this year, I don’t think it’s going to be pain-free,”

NEW YORK -- The Mets are going to play out the rest of this season without their best starter from the last one. Pitcher Kodai Senga experienced a bout of right triceps tightness during his Minor League rehab start Saturday for Triple-A Syracuse. Although Senga doesn’t consider the issue serious,

NEW YORK -- Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor received a facet joint injection in his back on Thursday, a course of treatment team trainers hope will increase his rate of recovery. A day after receiving the shot, Lindor was feeling well enough to take batting practice swings from the right side

NEW YORK -- Christian Scott, one of the Mets’ most promising pitching prospects of the past decade, will undergo season-ending elbow surgery next week and miss the entire 2025 campaign as well. Scott said Wednesday that he plans to undergo a hybrid elbow surgery, which combines a traditional Tommy John

NEW YORK -- Kodai Senga intends to pitch a tune-up inning at Triple-A Syracuse this weekend in advance of joining the Mets for at least part of their final road trip through Atlanta and Milwaukee, the injured pitcher said on Wednesday. “I’ve been working my tail off and devoting all

NEW YORK -- The Mets breathed a collective sigh of relief on Monday ahead of a pivotal seven-game homestand against the Nationals and Phillies after receiving news that Francisco Lindor’s prognosis on his lower back soreness wasn’t too serious. After being removed from Sunday’s series finale at Citizens Bank Park

PHILADELPHIA -- Whatever one’s definition of valuable might be, it’s clear that Francisco Lindor embodies it. If any additional proof were required, the Mets' star shortstop supplied it Sunday through his absence. Attempting to play through a lower-back injury, Lindor lasted all of one inning before he again had to

PHILADELPHIA -- Initially, Francisco Lindor didn’t think he needed to slide. After slicing an RBI hit into the right-center field gap in the sixth inning on Friday night at Citizens Bank Park, Lindor rounded first with what he believed to be a standup double. But as Johan Rojas gathered the
