	The team&#x2019;s president of baseball operations replied, &#x201C;I think with Luis, it&#x2019;s the possibility of what he can do for us in the second...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">20376</guid><pubDate>Fri, 28 Aug 2026 19:35:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Kodai Senga Still Hasn't Usurped Devin Williams As Mets' Future Closer</title><link>https://grandcentralmets.com/new-york-mets-news/mets/kodai-senga-still-hasnt-usurped-devin-williams-as-mets-future-closer-r20371/</link><description>Despite surrendering a walk-off home run to Tristan Peters, Kodai Senga&#x2019;s transition to a single-inning reliever has been far more fruitful than this season&#x2019;s work out of the rotation. Since making the switch on August 4, Senga has featured eight times, thrown 7.1 innings, and posted a 2.45 ERA....</description><guid isPermaLink="false">20371</guid><pubDate>Thu, 27 Aug 2026 10:59:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Francisco Lindor's Power Is Back, Offering Mets Yet Another Promising Sign for the Future</title><link>https://grandcentralmets.com/new-york-mets-news/mets/francisco-lindors-power-is-back-offering-mets-yet-another-promising-sign-for-the-future-r20366/</link><description>The New York Mets own a winning record in August and are producing their best OPS (.775) in any month of this season. They have done it without a single plate appearance from Juan Soto, who last played on July 24 before going on the injured list.

The only problem is that the Mets have not seen the numbers from Bichette tha...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">20362</guid><pubDate>Sun, 23 Aug 2026 13:07:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Christian Scott Is Mets' Greatest 2026 Success Story, Because He's Learned How To Cut Up Lefties</title><link>https://grandcentralmets.com/new-york-mets-news/mets/christian-scott-is-mets-greatest-2026-success-story-because-hes-learned-how-to-cut-up-lefties-r20361/</link><description>Christian Scott throws right-handed, unleashes his curveball and splitter a combined 9% of the time, and leans heavily on the tried-and-true fastball-slider combination. Based on those details, it shouldn&#x2019;t be too surprising to learn that out of the 340 batters he has faced this season, 214 (63%...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">20361</guid><pubDate>Sat, 22 Aug 2026 12:06:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>A.J.

Ewing has dropped to a 45 wRC+ in August, and though that might look like a reasonable slump for a rookie, the struggles actually began in July.

The 13-year veteran, who has been predominantly a second basemen his whole career, was tasked with learning first base in hopes of replacing Alonso.

Since then, the only game he started was when the team decided to scratch the soon-to-be-traded Freddy Peralta, so he&#x2019;s officially a relief pitcher now.
