Could be bullpen option Montas (lat) may rejoin the Mets in a bullpen role rather than being plugged into the rotation right away, Tim Britton of the Athletic reports.
Impact In his most recent rehab start for Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Montas got hammered for eight runs in only 1.2 innings, and he'll get to make only one more start before his 30-day rehab stint expires. The 32-year-old is stretched out enough to handle a starting role -- he's thrown 129 pitches over his last two appearances -- but if his performance doesn't improve in his final outing for Syracuse, the Mets may not want to risk him in the rotation. New York plays 13 games in 13 days beginning Tuesday however and will almost certainly need a sixth starter to get through that stretch, and their options for that spot are limited with Paul Blackburn already set to fill in for Kodai Senga (hamstring). If the Mets decide that Montas isn't quite ready to start when he's activated from the IL, it could open the door for a prospect like Nolan McLean to make a spot start instead.

Lit up in latest rehab start Montas (lat) surrendered eight earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out one batter over 1.2 innings in his rehab start Friday with Triple-A Syracuse.
Impact Montas made the fifth start of his rehab assignment but had his roughest showing yet. He needed 53 pitches just to record five outs and gave up five extra-base hits while also hitting a batter. After tossing 76 pitches in his previous rehab start with Syracuse last weekend, Montas is stretched out enough to be a viable rotation option for the Mets, but the ugly performance Friday means that he'll likely need at least one more outing in the minors to knock off some rust before he returns from the 60-day injured list. Montas has been on the shelf all season after being diagnosed with a high-grade right lat strain early in spring training.

Return could get pushed up Montas (lat) is set to make a rehab start Friday with Triple-A Syracuse, but it could be his final one with the Mets needing to replace Kodai Senga (hamstring) in the big-league ro...
Impact Manager Carlos Mendoza downplayed the idea that Montas' recovery would be accelerated in the wake of Senga's injury, however. "The decision with Montas is what's best for Montas," Mendoza said Thursday. "We are not going to rush because of what happened today. If he needs another [rehab start], we will give him another one." The right-hander built up to 76 pitches in his last start for Syracuse on June 8, so if he looks good Friday, it could be enough to convince the team he's ready for his 2025 debut. Montas signed a one year, $17 million contract with the Mets this offseason that included a player option for 2026 after producing a 4.84 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 148:66 over 150.2 innings last year between the Reds and Brewers.

Builds up at Syracuse Montas (lat) threw 76 pitches (43 strikes) in a rehab start for Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday, giving up three runs on four hits and three walks over 3.2 innings. He struck out two.
Impact While the results weren't pretty, the pitch count is what matters for Montas as he gets closer to making his Mets debut after suffering a lat injury in mid-February. The right-hander's 30-day rehab assignment won't run out until June 24 and New York doesn't have an immediate need in the rotation, so Montas is likely to remain at Syracuse for a couple more starts in an effort to improve his performance before being activated from the injured list.
