Episode Details

Mets catcher Francisco Alvarez is close to returning to the big leagues, but his recent rehab performance has raised red flags—his bat has gone cold with multiple hitless games and strikeouts, despite strong early progress. While his defense remains solid, the offensive slump may stem from rushing back after knee surgery, potentially affecting his swing. The Mets, not in a rush, could opt to keep him in Triple-A to fine-tune his timing, especially with Luis Torrens stepping up admirably as a capable backup. The team’s priority? Getting Alvarez fully ready for a sustained impact.
