Myers will start Friday's contest on the mound versus the Marlins, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Myers will make his second start of the year, and it'll potentially be his first in a traditional starter's role. His previous start came as an opener April 20 against the Cubs, tossing a scoreless frame in the team's loss to Chicago. Myers has posted a 3.41 ERA and 1.03 WHIP with 23 strikeouts over 29 innings in 16 appearances, including a start, with New York so far this season.

Mets' Devin Williams: Hangs on for seventh save
Rotowire
Williams secured the save Thursday against the Nationals, allowing no runs on one hit and no walks in the ninth inning. He struck out one.
Williams let the possible tying run get into scoring position via a Daylen Lile double, but he held on to preserve a one-run win for the Mets on Thursday. That's now 10 consecutive scoreless outings as well for the right-hander, who has nailed down five straight save opportunities. Williams is still recovering from a brutal start to the year, holding a 4.32 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 25:8 K:BB over 16.2 innings while converting seven of his eight save chances.
Mets' David Peterson: Survives early scare in third win
Rotowire
Peterson (3-4) notched the win Thursday against the Nationals, allowing one run on four hits and three walks in five innings. He struck out three.
Peterson weathered an early storm Thursday, stranding the base loaded during the opening frame, and it was mostly smooth sailing thereafter. The 30-year-old southpaw has been erratic overall for the Mets this season, giving up at least four runs on four occasions, but he's yielded two or fewer runs in four consecutive outings during the month of May. Peterson will try to further improve on his 5.03 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 49:20 K:BB over 48.1 innings in his next scheduled appearance against the Reds.

Mets' Kodai Senga: Cleared for rehab assignment
Rotowire
Senga (back) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A St. Lucie on Friday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Senga has been throwing at the Mets' spring training complex in Florida and is ready to test things out in a game setting. The 33-year-old right-hander posted a 9.00 ERA in his first five starts before landing on the 15-day injured list in late April with lumbar spine inflammation, so the Mets will want Senga to look crisp in addition to feeling healthy before they consider re-inserting him into the big-league rotation.

Mets' A.J. Minter: On track to return next week
Rotowire
Minter (hip/lat) pitched Tuesday and Wednesday for Triple-A Syracuse, and he's expected to make one more rehab appearance this weekend before being activated from the 60-day injured list early next week, Tim Britton and Will Sammon of The Athletic report.
The veteran southpaw hasn't pitched in the majors in over a calendar year after undergoing surgery to repair a lat muscle in May 2025 and then dealing with a hip issue in early May of this season, but Minter is poised to make his 2026 debut for the Mets. Over 6.2 innings for Syracuse, he's delivered a 2.70 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 3:1 K:BB, and he should quickly regain a high-leverage role in front of closer Devin Williams.
Mets' Juan Soto: Posts 29th career multi-homer game
Rotowire
Soto went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Wednesday's 8-4 loss to Washington.
The All-Star slugger is locked in at the plate, crushing five homers during his current seven-game hitting streak. Soto has nine RBI during that stretch, tallying multiple hits five times over that span as well. Across 148 plate appearances overall, he's slashing a robust .299/.392/.559 with 14 extra-base hits (nine home runs), 20 RBI, four stolen bases and 21 runs scored.

Mets' Zach Thornton: Ambushed in big-league debut
Rotowire
Thornton (0-1) took the loss Wednesday against Washington, allowing four runs on four hits and two walks in 4.1 innings. He struck out three.
Making his first career major-league start, Thornton struggled across the board Wednesday. The Nationals ambushed the southpaw for three runs in the first inning, but Thornton was at least able to settle down a bit afterward and hold Washington to one run across his next 3.1 frames. He's next tentatively set to take the ball against the Reds for the next turn through the rotation, but it remains to be seen if the Mets will call up Jonah Tong to fill that slot.
Manager Carlos Mendoza said that Tong was scratched from his scheduled start with Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday because the Mets are contemplating calling him up for this weekend's series in Miami, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
Considering that Tong was roughed up for seven runs (six earned) over 1.2 innings his last time out for Syracuse on May 14 and maintains a 5.68 ERA on the season for the Triple-A club, any potential promotion this weekend wouldn't be based on merit. Even so, Mendoza suggested that the Mets are still entertaining the idea of bringing Tong aboard mainly to give the pitching staff some extra coverage while New York navigates a stretch of 16 games in as many days. The Mets will wait and see how the final two games of their series in Washington plays out before deciding if he's needed, but if Tong is recalled, he could be deployed as a spot starter or a multi-inning option out of the bullpen this weekend.

Mets' Luis Torrens: Resting up Wednesday
Rotowire
Torrens is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
The Mets will give Torrens a breather after he started behind the plate in four of the past five games. Hayden Senger will handle catching duties for the Mets on Wednesday, forming a battery with Zach Thornton in the rookie lefty's MLB debut.

Mets' Zach Thornton: Called up ahead of MLB debut
Rotowire
The Mets selected Thornton's contract from Triple-A Syracuse ahead of his scheduled start Wednesday in Washington.
New York optioned reliever Daniel Duarte to the minors to clear room on the active roster for Thornton, who will be making his MLB debut Wednesday. The 24-year-old lefty will get a look in the New York rotation after he compiled a 3.55 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 33:10 K:BB over 33 innings across six starts between Syracuse and Double-A Binghamton. Though Kodai Senga (spine) seems to be trending toward a return from the injured list in the next couple weeks, the back end of the rotation has been a trouble spot for the Mets all season. With that in mind, Thornton could end up sticking around in a starting role on a more permanent basis if he's able to find success in his initial opportunities with the big club.

Mets' Daniel Duarte: Sent to minors
Rotowire
The Mets optioned Duarte to Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday.
After being called up from Triple-A on Monday, the 29-year-old made his Mets debut a day later against the Nationals, tossing 2.1 scoreless innings out of the bullpen. The Mets sent him back to Syracuse in order to make room on the active roster for Wednesday's starting pitcher, Zach Thornton.
Thornton will start Wednesday's game against the Nationals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Thornton's start Wednesday will mark his MLB debut, and the Mets have officially decided not to use the 24-year-old southpaw behind an opener. He'll be filling the opening left in New York's rotation by Clay Holmes (leg) and should receive several opportunities to make an impression with the big club before Kodai Senga (back) returns from the IL in a few weeks.

Mets' Nolan McLean: Command issues in Tuesday's loss
Rotowire
McLean (2-3) took the loss against the Nationals on Tuesday, allowing nine runs (six earned) on eight hits and two walks while striking out five across 5.2 innings.
McLean was afforded an early 5-0 run thanks to a pair of two-run homers by Bo Bichette, but that lead quickly evaporated after McLean gave up an inside-the-park grand slam to James Wood in the second inning and another five runs over the next two frames. Three of those five runs were unearned, but it was still a rough outing for McLean, whose six earned runs and eight hits were both career worsts. He'll take a 3.57 ERA and 1.03 WHIP over 58 innings into his next start, which is lined up for this weekend on the road against the Marlins.

Mets' Juan Soto: Goes deep in Tuesday's loss
Rotowire
Soto went 2-for-4 with a solo home run during the Mets' 9-6 loss to the Nationals on Tuesday.
Most of Tuesday's scoring took place within the first four innings, but Soto added to the Mets' run total with a solo homer off Brad Lord in the seventh, Soto's seventh home run of the season. Soto has recorded two hits in five of his last eight games, and over that span he has gone 12-for-32 (.375) with three steals, three home runs, seven RBI and nine runs scored.

Mets' Bo Bichette: Goes yard twice Tuesday
Rotowire
Bichette went 2-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI during the Mets' 9-6 loss to the Nationals on Tuesday.
Bichette entered the series with just two home runs through 46 regular-season games. He went deep in Monday's extra-inning win and added two more home runs in Tuesday's high-scoring affair, both of which brought Carson Benge home. Bichette is slashing .224/.277/.332 with one steal, 25 RBI and 23 runs scored over 213 plate appearances this season.
