Shines at plate Wednesday Benge went 3-for-3 in the Mets' Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals on Wednesday.

Impact The 23-year-old hit leadoff, and while all three of Benge's knocks were singles, all three of them also came in two-strike counts as he saw a total of 19 pitches over the three plate appearances. Benge is being given a real chance to win the starting job in right field during camp, and performances like this can only help his case. He slashed .282/.389/.467 between High-A, Double-A and Triple-A in 2025 with a 13.5 percent walk rate and a 17.5 percent strikeout rate, adding 14 homers and 24 steals on 28 attempts in 116 games.

Invited to MLB spring training The Mets have extended Benge an invitation to big-league camp during spring training.

Impact Benge is firmly in the mix -- and perhaps the favorite -- to be the Mets' Opening Day left fielder. The top prospect slashed .281/.385/.472 with 15 homers, 22 stolen bases and a 68:92 BB:K over 116 games covering three levels in the minors last season. Tyrone Taylor and MJ Melendez represent Benge's biggest competition for the left-field job.

Impact Benge began 2025 at High-A Brooklyn but made it to Triple-A Syracuse by the end of the season, slashing .282/.389/.467 with 14 homers, 69 RBI, 85 runs scored and 24 steals between three affiliates. However, his progress noticeably stalled at Syracuse, where he posted just a .583 OPS through 103 Triple-A plate appearances. Although the 22-year-old's rapid ascent through New York's farm system will buy him a chance to win the center field job in Queens, the club may want to see Benge perform better at Triple-A before calling him up to the bigs.

Returns from IL Tenge (undisclosed) has gone 2-for-8 with a home run, two RBI and an additional run in two games for Triple-A Syracuse since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Wednesday.

Impact Tenge missed just under two weeks of action while tending to an unspecified injury. Since getting bumped up from Double-A Binghamton to Syracuse earlier this month, the 22-year-old outfield prospect is slashing .250/.348/.400 through his first six games at the Triple-A level.

Lands on IL at Triple-A Benge was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday with an undisclosed injury.

Impact Benge had played only four games with Syracuse upon his promotion from Double-A Binghamton before going down with the injury. It's not clear what exactly he's dealing with or how long he'll be out, but the injury doesn't help Benge's already-long odds of making his major-league debut in 2025. The 22-year-old has slashed .306/.413/.504 with 12 homers and 20 steals across three minor-league levels this season.

Moving up to Triple-A Benge was promoted to Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday, Joe DeMayo of SNYtv reports.

Impact Benge has been red-hot with Double-A Binghamton, posting a .317 average with eight home runs, 23 RBI, 28 runs scored and four stolen bases over 126 at-bats in 32 games this season. The 22-year-old will now look to keep it up at Triple-A, joining the likes of other fellow prospects Jett Williams and Ryan Clifford, both of whom were also promoted to Syracuse on Sunday.

Red hot at Double-A Benge went 2-for-4 with a walk, a solo home run and a second run scored for Double-A Binghamton on Tuesday.

Impact The 22-year-old top prospect has hit safely in 11 of the last 12 games for Binghamton, slashing a blistering .431/.525/.784 over that stretch with three doubles, five homers, 14 RBI, 17 runs and more walks (nine) than strikeouts (eight). After tearing up High-A pitching to earn a promotion in June and having even more success at Double-A, Benge could find himself bumped up to Triple-A Syracuse before the season is over, and a 2026 big-league debut is firmly on the table.

Promoted to Double-A Benge was promoted to Double-A Binghamton on Sunday.

Impact Benge will take a step up to Double-A after batting .302 with four home runs, 37 RBI, 47 runs scored and 15 stolen bases over 225 at-bats in 60 games with High-A Brooklyn this year. The 22-year-old was selected in the first round of the First-Year Player Draft in 2024, and he's one of the Mets' top overall prospects, potentially on track to make his major-league debut in 2026.

Pushing for promotion Benge went 2-for-3 with a double, a home run, two runs scored and four RBI for High-A Brooklyn on Sunday.

Impact The 22-year-old appears to be ready for his next challenge. Over his last 20 games for the Cyclones, Benge is slashing .382/.495/.618 with three homers and eight steals in 10 attempts, and he's drawn more walks (18) than strikeouts (15). The 2024 first-round pick is only 47 games into his pro career, but a promotion to Double-A Binghamton would seem to be right around the corner.

MAY 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Heating up at High-A Benge went 4-for-5 with two doubles, two runs scored and a stolen base for High-A Brooklyn on Tuesday.

Impact The 19th overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft is finding his groove in the South Atlantic League. Benge has reeled off three straight multi-hit performances, and over his last 12 games for the Cyclones he's slashing .314/.375/.451 with four doubles, a homer, a steal, six RBI and 10 runs. Given his college background, the 22-year-old may not be far away from a promotion to Double-A if he keeps raking.
