David Peterson - Dominant in Monday's outing Peterson struck out five over three scoreless innings in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Marlins, giving up one hit without walking a batter.
Impact The southpaw took over from Kodai Senga to begin the third inning and fired 25 of 37 pitches for strikes before hitting the showers. Peterson is coming off the best season of his big-league career in 2024, posting a 2.90 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 101:46 K:BB over a career-high 121 innings, and the Mets are counting on the 29-year-old to help solidify a rotation that will be missing Sean Manaea (oblique) and Frankie Montas (lat) to begin the season.

Christian Scott - Set to throw Monday Scott will throw from 45 feet Monday as he continues his recovery from hybrid elbow surgery performed last September, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Impact While he won't see any game action in 2025, Scott has progressed well so far in his rehab, and Monday will represent an important milestone -- his first time throwing since the surgery. "Counting down the hours," the right-hander said Tuesday. Scott has also improved his nutrition and overall fitness while rehabbing, and if he makes a full recovery, he's likely to be competing for a spot in the big-league rotation next spring.

Max Kranick - Making case for bullpen spot Kranick has posted a 7:0 K:BB over 6.1 scoreless innings through his first three Grapefruit League appearances, and Will Sammon of The Athletic reports that Kranick could be puttin...
Impact The 27-year-old righty appeared to be on the outside looking in for a spot on the 26-man roster, but the Mets waived Sean Reid-Foley on Tuesday, and neither Dedniel Nunez (elbow) nor A.J. Minter (hip) are guaranteed to be ready for Opening Day. Kranick hit 98 mph with his fastball out of the bullpen at Triple-A Syracuse last year, and his sweeper has drawn raves from scouts. He could provide New York with a long-relief option to begin the campaign.
