Carson Benge

NYM Center Fielder #66

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Carson Benge continued his hot hitting during Monday’s 9-0 victory over the Marlins, going 2-for-3 with a triple and three RBI.

The 23-year-old is doing everything that he can to stake his claim to the opening that the team has in right field. Benge smacked an RBI triple off of Tyler Phillips in the second inning that extended the Mets’ lead to 5-0. He then added a two-run single in the sixth and came around to score on a double off the bat of Ronny Mauricio. He’s now slashing .391/.440/.478 with four RBI, one stolen base and a 4/1 K/BB ratio in 25 plate appearances on the spring.
Ronny Mauricio

NYM 3rd Baseman #0

Ronny Mauricio went 2-for-3 with a double, RBI and a run scored as the Mets walloped the Marlins in Grapefruit League competition on Monday evening.

The 24-year-old infielder reached on a fielder’s choice and scored during the Mets’ four-run uprising in the opening inning. He also drove in a run with an RBI double in the sixth that capped off the scoring in the contest. With his two-hit attack, Mauricio is hitting .286 (6-for-23) with a homer, two RBI and two swipes during Grapefruit League play.
Carson Benge

NYM Center Fielder #66

Carson Benge went 2-for-3 with an RBI in the Mets’ 10-4 takedown of the Yankees on Sunday.

Benge has no extra-base hits or walks through seven appearances, but he’s batting .350. The Mets had him playing center and Tyrone Taylor in right today. Benge is competing for the right field job, but the Mets do need to know if he’s viable in center in case Luis Robert Jr. goes down.
Freddy Peralta

NYM Starting Pitcher #51

Freddy Peralta worked three innings and allowed two runs Sunday versus the Yankees.

Both runs came in the first. Peralta retired the first two batters he faced but then gave up a triple, two singles and a walk before retiring Duke Ellis to end the inning. Peralta struck out four with a solid 36% CSW today. He has a 3.00 ERA and a 7/1 K/BB through six innings.
Juan Soto

NYM Right Fielder #22

Juan Soto delivered a game-ending two-run homer in the seventh as the Dominican Republic topped The Netherlands 12-1 on Sunday.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Junior Caminero and Austin Wells also homered for the Dominican Republic. All of the homers came with one man on base, except for Caminero’s, which came with two. The short game saw Luis Severino, Albert Abreu and Abner Uribe combine to strike out 11 over seven innings. The Dominican Republic improved to 2-0 in pool play, while The Netherlands fell to 1-2.
Robert Stock

NYM Relief Pitcher #78

Robert Stock told reporters on Sunday that he’ll undergo surgery for thoracic outlet syndrome.

The 36-year-old right-hander suffered the injury while pitching for Team Israel in the World Baseball Classic. It’s a tough blow for the veteran hurler, though he indicated optimism that he could return before the end of the 2026 campaign.
Clay Holmes

NYM Starting Pitcher #35

Clay Holmes worked three scoreless innings with six strikeouts against Great Britain on Saturday.

Holmes was pumped tonight; his sinker was up about one mph from last year and his changeup was up two mph. He threw first-pitch strikes to all 10 batters he faced and wound up with a 47% CSW.
Brett Baty

NYM 3rd Baseman #7

Brett Baty collected two hits and a steal Saturday as the Mets edged the Cardinals 3-2.

Baty made his second start at first base today. He’s also played right field once. Although he’d never played first base prior to last week, he has a chance to be the Mets’ best defender there, which would help keep him in the lineup after the Bo Bichette signing knocked him off third base. It’s clear he needs to start somewhere against righties after his fine second half last year.
Kodai Senga

NYM Starting Pitcher #34

Kodai Senga allowed two runs in 2 2/3 innings Saturday against the Cardinals in his spring debut.

Senga gave up a couple of homers, though one of those was a 341-footer from Miguel Ugueto that wasn’t even a hard-hit ball. He allowed just one other hit, walked none and struck out two. He topped out at 98.9 mph, and his 18 fastballs averaged 96.7 mph, which is two mph better than last year. Obviously, that’s pretty encouraging. The league hit .273 and slugged .530 against Senga’s fastball when he averaged 94.7 mph last year. When he averaged 95.7 mph as an MLB rookie in 2023, the league hit .243 and slugged .397 against the pitch.
Craig Kimbrel

NYM Relief Pitcher #46

Craig Kimbrel looked sharp in Friday’s Grapefruit League appearance against the Marlins, racking up a pair of strikeouts in his scoreless frame.

The 37-year-old right-hander allowed just one baserunner in the outing — a leadoff walk to Heriberto Hernandez. He rebounded nicely though, retiring the next three hitters in order, including punchouts of Connor Norby and Maximo Acosta. Kimbrel’s velocity was still down in this one, averaging 91.9 mph (-1.6 mph) on his fastball. He’ll probably have to get that back up and string together several good outings if he’s going to crack the Mets’ Opening Day bullpen.
