David Peterson - Set to operate in bulk role Peterson will pitch in bulk relief behind an opener in Monday's series opener in Colorado, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact Peterson will follow an opener for the second time this season, last doing so April 19 against the Cubs, tossing 3.2 scoreless innings while allowing three hits in the team's 2-1 loss to Chicago. He pitched behind right-hander Tobias Myers in that contest, and although nothing has been announced quite yet, it's certainly possible that Myers will be Monday's opener. Peterson has posted a disappointing 6.53 ERA and 1.71 WHIP with 29 strikeouts over 30.1 innings in seven appearances, including five starts, with New York this season.

Mets place infielder Ronny Mauricio on IL with thumb fracture, call up Vidal Brujan from Triple-A

Francisco Alvarez - Resting up Sunday Alvarez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

Impact Luis Torrens will receive the nod behind the plate for the matinee contest while Alvarez rests. Alvarez made starts in the first two games of the series, going 2-for-9 with a run and an RBI.

Eric Wagaman - Loses 40-man spot The Mets designated Wagaman for assignment Sunday.

Impact Wagaman's stay on the Mets' 40-man roster lasted just under a week, after New York claimed him off waivers from Minnesota on Monday. The 28-year-old corner infielder will now be subject to the waiver process, and if he goes unclaimed this time around, he'll have the ability to reject an outright assignment to Triple-A Syracuse and elect free agency.

Vidal Bruján - Summoned from Triple-A The Mets selected Brujan's contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday.

Impact The addition of Brujan gives the Mets another option at shortstop beyond Bo Bichette after Ronny Mauricio (thumb) joined Francisco Lindor (calf) on the 10-day injured list Sunday. Though Bichette has played almost exclusively at third base this season, he has plenty of experience at shortstop and will start at the position in Sunday's series finale in Anaheim. If the Mets are comfortable enough with Bichette's defense at shortstop, Brujan will likely fill a utility role while he's up in the majors and won't be in store for regular reps.

Ronny Mauricio - Shifts to IL The Mets placed Mauricio (thumb) on the 10-day injured list Sunday.

Impact New York hasn't issued a timeline for Mauricio's return, but after fracturing his left thumb while diving into first base during Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Angels, the young infielder will be surely miss more than the minimum 10 days. The Mets called up Vidal Brujan to provide another option at shortstop while Mauricio and Francisco Lindor (calf) are on the shelf, but Bo Bichette will start at the position in Sunday's series finale in Anaheim and could end up seeing the bulk of the playing time at that spot in the short term.

Juan Soto - Swipes first bag Saturday Soto went 1-for-4 with a single, a walk and stolen base in Saturday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Angels.

Impact After swiping a career-high 38 bases in 2025, Soto registered his first steal of the 2026 campaign in the 10th inning. The 27-year-old has been productive since returning from injury April 22, hitting safely in eight of 10 games with four extra-base hits, three RBI and five runs scored while reaching base at least once in each contest during that stretch. For the year, he's slashing .338/.442/.538 with three homers, eight RBI, eight runs scored and a steal across just 77 plate appearances.

Nolan McLean - Early hook in no-decision McLean did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Angels, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk with six strikeouts over four innings.

Impact McLean didn't have his best stuff, inducing just six whiffs on a season-low 78 pitches and departing with a 3-1 deficit after allowing two runs in the fourth inning. It was a rare hiccup for the 24-year-old, though he's still yielded three earned runs or fewer in each of his seven outings this season. He owns a 2.97 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 51:11 K:BB across 39.1 innings and lines up for a road matchup against the Diamondbacks next weekend.
