Tyrone Taylor - Heading to bench Monday Taylor is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rockies.

Impact Taylor will hit the bench after starting in the Mets' previous three games while going 1-for-11 with a walk and an RBI. Though his playing-time outlook has improved with Luis Robert (back) recently landing on the injured list, Taylor may have to settle for a part-time role in center field against right-handed pitching since rookie Carson Benge is also capable of covering the position.

Juan Soto - Batting leadoff Monday Soto will start in left field and bat leadoff in Monday's game versus the Rockies.

Impact It's just the third time that Soto has ever batted leadoff and the first time since 2021 he's been at the top of the batting order. He had batted second in each of his first 19 contests this season. Soto is flipping spots with Bo Bichette, who will move down to the two hole.

Dylan Ross - Moves past arm injury Ross (arm) has allowed two earned runs on one hit and three walks while striking out three batters across 1.2 innings in two appearances for Triple-A Syracuse since being reinstate...

Impact Ross was on the shelf for the first month of the Triple-A season due to arm fatigue before being cleared to debut for Syracuse after completing a four-appearance rehab assignment at Single-A St. Lucie. The 25-year-old righty received a call-up to the Mets for the final weekend of last season, but he didn't make his MLB debut. Assuming he can maintain health while pitching effectively at Triple-A, Ross should have a good chance at rejoining the big-league bullpen at some point later on in 2026.

Edward Lantigua - Back in action at Single-A Lantigua (core) has gone 2-for-18 with a double, three stolen bases, four RBI, two runs and a 1:7 BB:K through five games with Single-A St. Lucie since being assigned to the affili...

Impact The 19-year-old outfielder's season got off to a delayed start while he completed his rehab for a core-muscle injury, but he received clearance to make his full-season debut last week. Lantigua had been a standout performer for the Mets in the rookie-level Florida Complex League last season, posting an .832 OPS while stealing 13 bags and walking (17.7 percent) more often than he struck out (14.9 percent).

Huascar Brazobán - Drawing opener assignment Brazoban will serve as the Mets' opening pitcher in Monday's game versus the Rockies, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

Impact Brazoban will likely handle just one inning before handing things off to David Peterson, who is slated to be the team's primary pitcher in the series opener. The right-handed Brazoban has been excellent out of the Mets' bullpen this season, posting a 1.15 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 13:3 K:BB across 15.2 frames.

Carson Benge - On base three times Sunday Benge went 1-for-2 with two walks, a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Sunday's win over the Angels.

Impact The 23-year-old rookie also delivered a clutch web gem in the ninth inning, stretching out to make a spectacular diving catch on a Vaughn Grissom poke that threatened to head into the right-field corner for an RBI double. Benge has begun to get comfortable in the majors, slashing .290/.333/.452 over the last 10 games with two doubles, a homer, four RBI and five runs.

Impact Edwards cleared waivers after being removed from the 40-man roster. He has the ability to elect free agency, though it's unclear whether he plans to exercise that right or remain in the organization. Edwards has posted a 1.50 ERA with 11 strikeouts over six frames during his time with the Mets this season.

Mark Vientos - Goes deep twice Sunday Vientos went 2-for-4 with a pair of two-run homers in Sunday's win over the Angels.

Impact Vientos powered the Mets' offense, getting the club on the board with a two-run blast in the fourth inning before extending the lead in the ninth frame with another two-run shot. It marked the 26-year-old's first multi-homer game of the season and his first long ball since April 18. After a brutal cold spell in the middle of April, Vientos may be starting to heat up, with his OPS up to .737 across 26 contests after entering Sunday's contest at .650.

Clay Holmes - Nabs fourth win Holmes (4-2) earned the win Sunday, allowing one run on four hits and three walks over 6.2 innings against the Angels. He struck out six.

Impact Holmes' strong 2026 campaign continued Sunday, as the right-hander kept the Angels' bats quiet en route to his fourth win of the season. In what has been a rocky start to the year for the Mets, the 33-year-old has been a pillar of consistency, tossing five-plus innings in all seven starts to date without allowing more than two earned runs. Across 42.2 innings, Holmes owns a 1.69 ERA and 0.98 WHIP with a 31:14 K:BB and is tentatively scheduled to start Saturday against the Diamondbacks.
