  • Mets' Drew Gilbert: Makes return from IL
    By RotoWire

    Triple-A Syracuse reinstated Gilbert (hamstring) from its 7-day injured list Tuesday. Before sitting out Wednesday's game, Gilbert returned to the Syracuse lineup in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to Buffalo, starting in left field while going 1-for-5 at the plate. Gilbert was back in action with Syracuse for the first time since April 6 after missing more than three months while recovering from a left hamstring strain. He made six rehab appearances in the rookie-level Florida Complex League and with Single-A St. Lucie prior to being activated.

  • Gilbert was placed on the 7-day injured list with Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday due to a mild right hamstring strain, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. The 23-year-old suffered the injury while running the bases Saturday and will be sidelined for at least the next week, though it's possible he faces a lengthier absence. Gilbert is one of the Mets' top prospects and could make his MLB debut at some point this season with a strong showing at Syracuse.

  • The Mets reassigned Gilbert to minor-league spring training Sunday, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports. Gilbert became one of the organization's top prospects after being acquired from the Astros in the Justin Verlander trade last year, and he went 1-for-9 in Grapefruit League play for the Mets this spring. The 23-year-old had a .984 OPS in 35 games at Double-A Binghamton following the trade, and he'll either return there or head to Triple-A Syracuse to begin the 2024 campaign.

  • Gilbert received an invite to big-league spring training from the Mets, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports. Picked up from the Astros in last year's Justin Verlander deal, Gilbert is the top outfield prospect in the Mets' organization and slashed .325/.423/.561 in 149 plate appearances for Double-A Binghamton following the trade. The 23-year-old could open the season at Triple-A and make his major-league debut later in 2024, but he's a long shot to break camp with the big-league club after the Mets added Harrison Bader last month.

  • Gilbert was traded from the Astros to the Mets on Tuesday along with at least one other prospect in exchange for Justin Verlander, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports. Netting Gilbert in return for Verlander is a nice piece of business for the Mets, as the 22-year-old center fielder is the Astros' best prospect. He dominated at High-A earlier this season (192 wRC+), in part because he was old for the level and playing half his games in the hitter-friendly park in Asheville. Gilbert has been less prolific at Double-A Corpus Christi, slashing .241/.342/.371 with six home runs and six steals, although he has heated up of late, batting .293 with five home runs and a 17.1 percent strikeout rate over his last 99 at-bats. Down the road, Gilbert has a chance to be a leadoff or No. 2 hitter who contributes in all five standard rotisserie categories. He could reach the majors sometime next season.
