The dishes plan to reintegrate the recipient Francisco Alvarez and inner field / outfall player Jeff McNeil Friday, the list of 10 days injured, manager Carlos Mendoza announced to journalists (video link via SNY). The two players will make their debut in 2025. Each will play in a last rehabilitation match today.
Alvarez, 23, has appeared in nine rehabilitation games so far and has taken 40 appearances on the plates. He started at an intermediate start, but the nature of his injury – a fractured bone of a hammate which required surgery – tends to finish his offensive performances at the start of the return of the strikers. The strike net has been the main receiver of the dishes in the last two seasons, reaching a .222 / .294 / .422. Alvarez also emerged as a high -level editor, although its blocking and launch capacities are lagging behind.
Until now in 2025, the dishes have gone with companion Luis Torrens like their starter and their 28 -year -old man local Hayden Senger as their backup. Torrens struck his first 11 games fairly well, but fell into a deep crisis. The 28 -year -old has only 3 against 27 in his last nine games, which makes Alvarez’s expected return all the more timely. It is likely that Torrens will continue as a safeguard in order to preserve the depth of capture; It is out of the minor league options, while Senger has a complete list of years of option and can be sent directly to Triple-A Syracuse without first needing derogations.
McNeil was released all year round due to oblique tension. The dishes gave him some looks in the central field during this rehabilitation passage, although it is not likely to play the position regularly. However, with Jose Siri Located for more than 10 weeks due to a fracture in his leg, the dishes took advantage of the McNeil rehabilitation stay and the versatile defensive profile to make him start in the center.
In all likelihood, McNeil will return and see time to the second goal, to the designated striker and perhaps in an outdoor corner. The dishes opened the year with Luisangel Acuña And Brett Baty Sharing time to the second goal. Acuña has managed things well, hitting .275 / .351 / .373 and contributing to solid gloves.
Baty, after a hot spring performance, experienced a brutal two -week section to start the season, but started to change things. The old 25 -year -old first round rpper crushed a second pair circuit Zack Wheeler In the match currently in progress against the phillies and entered a game today on a radiator .280 / .357 / .440 during his last eight competitions. He always strikes only .204 / .246 / .354, but it will take a while to recover from the line .111 / .111 / .148 which he totaled during his first 27 marble trips.
