Batting eighth in MLB debut Ewing will start in center field and bat eighth in Tuesday's game against the Tigers in what will be his major-league debut.

Impact Ewing was promoted from Triple-A Syracuse earlier in the day after slashing .339/.447/.514 with two home runs, 17 stolen bases and a 22:20 BB:K over 30 games between Double-A Binghamton and Syracuse. It's unclear how much the left-handed-hitting Ewing will play versus lefties, but he should be a regular presence in the Mets' lineup against righties like Jack Flaherty, who starts for Detroit on Tuesday.

Promotion on tap The Mets are expected to select Ewing's contract from Triple-A Syracuse ahead of Tuesday's game against the Tigers, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Ewing was promoted to Triple-A Syracuse at the end of April, but with the big-league club scuffling, he'll be fast tracked to the major leagues. The 21-year-old hit .326 with three doubles, four RBI, five stolen bases and nine runs over 12 appearances at Triple-A. Ewing could get a crack at taking over as the team's everyday center fielder with Luis Robert (back) yet to resume baseball activities, though he figures to also see time at the corner outfield spots as well.

Elevated to Triple-A The Mets promoted Ewing from Double-A Binghamton to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact One of the top-ranked prospects in the organization, Ewing has continued running wild at Double-A so far this season while also further refining his plate discipline. After ranking fourth in the minors with 70 steals across three stops in 2025, Ewing went 12-for-13 on stolen-base attempts through 18 games with Binghamton this season. Perhaps more significantly, Ewing raised his walk rate from 5.5 percent over 28 games at Binghamton last season to 21.2 percent so far in 2026, which enabled the 21-year-old to maintain a .349/.481/.571 slash line across 81 plate appearances. Ewing will now receive a stiffer test in the International League, but if he continues to make contact and draw walks at steady clips during his time at Syracuse, he could receive his first big-league call-up at some point in the second half of the season.

More walks than Ks at Double-A Ewing is hitting .385 with zero home runs, four steals and a 5:8 K:BB in seven games for Double-A Binghamton.

Impact The speedy center fielder logged a 133 wRC+ in 28 games at Double-A to close 2025, and he's got a 197 wRC+ early on in a return trip to the Eastern League. While Ewing's defense in center field continues to improve, he has seen two starts at second base this year, so he hasn't completely moved off the dirt. Ewing doesn't have the same slap-hitter tendencies as many speedsters, as he had a 40.3 percent groundball rate and 40.8 percent pull rate in 2025, but his groundball rate has spiked to 57.1 percent in the early going this year.

Promoted to Double-A Ewing was promoted to Double-A Binghamton on Sunday, Joe DeMayo of SNYtv reports.

Impact Ewing will move up to Double-A after he produced a .288 average with two home runs, 26 RBI, 52 runs scored and an eye-popping 44 stolen bases over 299 at-bats in 78 games with High-A Brooklyn this season. The 21-year-old played primarily center field with Brooklyn, starting 46 contests in that position, but he also drew starts at second base, left field, right field and designated hitter.

Blistering start at Single-A Ewing is slashing .415.490/.659 through 11 games for Single-A St. Lucie with three doubles, two triples, one home run, seven steals in nine attempts and a 7:6 BB:K.

Impact A compensatory pick in the 2023 First-Year Player Draft between the fourth and fifth rounds, 135th overall, Ewing didn't make much of an impression through his first two pro seasons but could be headed for a breakout. The 20-year-old has mainly played center field the last two years, and while his power upside remains questionable due to his small stature, he could emerge as a real prospect if his contact skills, batting eye and speed continue to play. he played 71 games for St. Lucie in 2024, so a quick promotion to High-A Brooklyn could be in order given his start to the current campaign.
