Jose Siri - Hot start to spring continues Siri went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Red Sox.

Impact He launched his third homer of the spring in the third inning, lofting a Liam Hendriks pitch just inside the foul pole down the left-field line. Siri's long balls are his only hits through 14 plate appearances so far, but he's also stolen a base and posted a 3:3 BB:K. The 29-year-old will be competing for playing time in center field with Tyrone Taylor once the regular season begins.

Paul Blackburn - Bumpy outing Sunday Blackburn gave up four runs (three earned) on three hits and two walks over 1.1 innings in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Red Sox. He failed to strike out a batter.

Impact After tossing a scoreless inning in his spring debut last week, Blackburn ran into trouble against a Boston lineup that featured most of its likely Opening Day starters. The 31-year-old right-hander is competing in camp for a spot at the back of the Mets' injury-plagued rotation, but Blackburn will need better performances than this to climb over Tylor Megill and Griffin Canning on the depth chart.

Starling Marte - First spring game coming soon Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Monday that Marte (knee) should get into games in "the next few days," Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Impact It's yet to be determined whether it will come in a Grapefruit League contest or a minor-league game, but either way it's a good sign for Marte's progression from right knee soreness. The veteran outfielder has been battling soreness in his right knee off and on since at least last summer. Marte is expected to be ready for Opening Day and is projected to serve in a short-side platoon at designated hitter.

Brandon Nimmo - Held out with sore knee Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Monday that Nimmo has been dealing with a sore right knee but is expected to be back in the lineup Tuesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Impact Nimmo made his spring debut last Friday but hadn't played since then and now we know why that's the case. While Mendoza described the knee issue for Nimmo as a "low level of concern," it's not ideal that the outfielder has added another injury to the plantar fasciitis he's overcoming in his left foot.
