Getting rest Saturday Torrens is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Athletics.

Impact Torrens went 1-for-5 with an RBI and three strikeouts in his return from a forearm injury that caused him to miss four games. Hayden Senger will take his place behind the dish Saturday and bat ninth.

Back in action Friday Torrens (forearm) will start at catcher and bat eighth Friday against the Athletics.

Impact Torrens has been held out of the Mets' last four games due to a bruised forearm, but he now appears to be fully healed and ready to return behind the dish. The 28-year-old is off to a strong start this year, going 6-for-20 with a homer and two RBI through eight games.

Held out again Wednesday Torrens (forearm) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Torrens hasn't started a game since Friday due to a right forearm bruise. There are no plans at this point to place him on the 10-day injured list, so Torrens will aim to return to action Friday versus the Athletics following the Mets' team off day Thursday. Hayden Senger will catch and bat ninth Wednesday.

APRIL 8 • Associated Press

Not yet ready to start Torrens (forearm) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Hayden Senger will pick up a fourth consecutive start while Torrens gets another day off to recover from a right forearm bruise. Torrens made an appearance off the bench Friday, and the Mets haven't added another healthy catcher to the roster, so for the time being, the 28-year-old doesn't look as though he'll require a stint on the injured list.

Continuing to sit Monday Torrens (forearm) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins.

Impact He'll be on the bench for the third game in a row while he gets more time to recover from a right forearm contusion. Hayden Senger will get another turn behind the dish, but the Mets' willingness to use Torrens off the bench in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jays suggests that he'll be ready to return to the starting lineup soon.

On bench again Sunday Torrens (forearm) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Mets' Luis Torrens gets scratched from lineup with forearm contusion He was replaced by Hayden Senger.

APRIL 5 • NYPOST.COM

Scratched from Saturday's lineup Torrens was a late scratch from Saturday's lineup against Toronto due to a right forearm contusion, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Torrens was originally slated to start behind the plate, but the forearm issue will keep him out of the lineup. In his place, Hayden Senger will start at catcher and bat ninth.

APRIL 5 • ROTOWIRE

Resting Wednesday Torrens is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Torrens will get his first day off of the season after he started behind the plate in each of the Mets' first five games while going 4-for-14 with a home run, two doubles, one walk and two RBI. Hayden Senger will form a battery with starting pitcher Clay Holmes on Wednesday, but Torrens should see the bulk of the starts at catcher until Francisco Alvarez (hand) is ready to return from the injured list.

APRIL 2 • ROTOWIRE

Adds to fifth-inning barrage in win Torrens went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 10-4 win over Miami.

Impact After an umpire review, Torrens recorded his first homer of the season during a seven-run fifth inning for the Mets. The 28-year-old backstop is hitting .364 (4-for-11) with the aforementioned long ball thus far, and he should remain New York's primary catcher until Francisco Alvarez (hand) is ready to come off the injured list.

APRIL 1 • ROTOWIRE

Smacks first spring homer Torrens went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals.

Impact The 28-year-old took Sonny Gray deep the other way in the second inning for his first long ball of the spring. Torrens is set to open the season as the Mets' starting catcher with Francisco Alvarez (hand) on the shelf until at least late April, but there's little reason to expect him to make an impact with regular playing time -- his .229/.292/.373 slash line over 130 regular-season plate appearances in 2024 was very similar to his .227/.289/.356 career line.

Chance as primary backstop Torrens is expected to start the season as the Mets' No. 1 catcher after Francisco Alvarez was diagnosed with a hand fracture Sunday, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News rep...

Impact Alvarez is expected to miss 6-to-8 weeks after undergoing surgery Monday, creating a hole behind the plate to begin the season for the Mets. Torrens will be the primary beneficiary of the injury after he posted a .229/.292/.373 slash line over 48 games in Queens last season. Jackson Reetz and Chris Williams are the top internal options to fill the backup job, but neither player is on the 40-man roster.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Reaches deal with Mets The Mets and Torrens avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract Thursday.

Impact Torrens was eligible for arbitration for the second time. He's slated to open the 2025 season as the Mets' backup catcher behind Francisco Alvarez.

Drawing start Sunday Torrens will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Impact With top backstop Francisco Alvarez receiving a routine maintenance day, Torrens will step in behind the dish. Since being acquired from the Yankees on May 31, Torrens has appeared in 35 games (28 starts) for the Mets, logging a .250/.311/.406 slash line with three home runs, 15 RBI and 13 runs.
