The Mets are set to reinstate catcher Francisco Alvarez and infielder/outfielder Jeff McNeil from the 10-day injured list on Friday, marking their 2025 debuts after final rehab games today. Alvarez, recovering from a fractured hamate bone, has struggled offensively during rehab, while McNeil has been sidelined all year with an oblique strain but may play various positions, including center field due to Jose Siri‘s injury. The Mets have relied on Luis Torrens and Hayden Senger at catcher, with Torrens facing a slump, making Alvarez’s return timely.
