It gets worse before it gets better, right? Before Monday’s series opener in Arizona, Mike Puma of the NY Post reported a few injury updates on Mets players. The team officially placed Jesse Winker on the injured list. He left Game 1 of Sunday’s doubleheader early with a Grade 2 oblique strain. He’ll likely be out for at least six to eight weeks. The Mets recalled Brett Baty from Syracuse to take his spot on the roster.

The Mets’ organization announced Monday that four prospects earned weekly or monthly accolades. Felipe De La Cruz, Zach Thornton, Jacob Reimer and A.J. Ewing excelled this past week and in April, earning deserved recognition. Felipe De La Cruz is the International League Pitcher of the Week (AAA) after going six innings of scoreless ball while striking out nine. The 23-year-old southpaw debuted with Syracuse after earning a promotion from Binghamton.

The lingering mystery of who will replace Jesse Winker on the roster has been solved. SNY’s Andy Martino reported Monday that Brett Baty would re-join the team that day. Baty, 25, started the season with the big league club but found himself on the outside looking in when Jeff McNeil returned from the IL last month and with Luisangel Acuña‘s hot streak. The now-minted utility player, who saw time at third and second in 2025, was hitting .204/.246/.352/.597 before his demotion.

It’s no secret the Mets value defensive versatility. It’s also no secret the organization loves a Cinderella story, finding a diamond in the rough and building on the player’s abilities. They’ve done it with players like Sean Manaea and Luis Severino on the pitching side and have found hidden gems like Luis Torrens and Tyrone Taylor on the position player side. Jared Young hopes to join that crowd.

Updated Post: Apr. 29 at 3:00 pmOnce again, Steve Cohen has surpassed another hurdle in his quest for the $8 billion Metropolitan Park at Citi Field. According to Nacha Cattan of Bloomberg, a New York State Senate committee voted Tuesday to approve a bill allowing Cohen to build on the 50-acre parking lot adjacent to Citi Field. The bill will then go to the Assembly, where it must pass and then move on to NY Governor Kathy Hochul for her signature.
