Box Score<\/a><\/p>\n RHP Carl Edwards Jr.<\/a>: 3.2 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 3 BB, 3 K (5.25 ERA) Carl Edwards Jr.is in the early stages of a transition to starting with the Mets, and his outing on Saturday did not go according to plan. He allowed seven base runners in less than four innings, allowing four of them to score. Austin Warren continues to impress in the minors and remains the likely candidate to be the first man up from Syracuse. Dan Hammer, whom the Mets signed to a two-year minor league contract, is off to a scoreless start for Syracuse.<\/p>\n The Syracuse bats as a whole were brutal on Saturday, with just three recorded hits. The duo of Nick Morabito<\/a> and Hayden Senger<\/a> were the only OPS marks over .800 in the starting lineup, and neither recorded a hit against the Bisons. They\u2019ll look to rebound on Sunday afternoon against the Bisons at 1:05 pm ET.<\/p>\n A.J. Ewing.

Ewing: 1-3, 3 BB (1.097 OPS) Eli Serrano III and AJ Ewing have been the best combination of lefty bats on any team in minor league baseball so far and are a major reason the Rumble Ponies are off to a 5-2 start. Catcher Chris Suero is cementing himself as a legitimate prospect for the Mets, while also pushing himself closer to the national spotlight. Jacob Reimer, a top-100 prospect, has been off to a slow start for the Ponies but reached base three times on Saturday. Their offense has the potential to be among the best in all of minor league baseball.<\/p>\n RHP Brendan Girton<\/a>: 3.1 IP, 2 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 6 BB, 2 K (6.75 ERA) Brendan Girton struggled once again for Binghamton, this time allowing a staggering six walks. Girton has now already walked 10 batters this year, 25% of his total from 2025, in roughly eight percent of the innings. He was bailed out by an incredible performance from Jefry Yan, recording all of his outs via the strikeout. The rest of the Ponies\u2019 bullpen was strong, allowing just two runs in 6 2\/3 innings pitched.<\/p>\n Mitch Voit<\/a>.

Mitch Voit recorded three hits, one of which was the team\u2019s only extra-base hit, and was supported by a four-time on-base performance by Ronald Hernandez, while John Bay continued his hot start to the season. Brooklyn reached base 12 times on the day, with Bay, Hernandez, and Voit accounting for over 75% of those occurrences.<\/p>\n RHP Garrett Stratton<\/a>: 1.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 5 K (4.91 ERA) The start of the season could not have gone any worse for Wyatt Hudepohl, who has now allowed nine earned runs in 7 2\/3 innings on this young season. Command has continued to be an issue, with Hudepohl routinely missing his spots and leaving the ball over the plate. He was followed by a spotless outing from the Cyclones bullpen, totaling 5 2\/3 scoreless innings of work with 10 strikeouts. They only allowed four base runners as a group.<\/p>\n Tommy Pham<\/a> by Ed Delany of Metsmerized<\/p>\n Single-A<\/p>\n Game One (F\/7): Dunedin (3-4) 9, St. Lucie(4-3) \u00a02<\/p>\n Box Score<\/a><\/p>\n The first half of Saturday\u2019s doubleheader was a tough hand for the St. Lucie Mets to be dealt, with most of their bats remaining quiet as their pitching got battered. Veteran Tommy Pham took an o-for on the night, with JT Benson and Elian Pe\u00f1a were the only two bats to reach base more than one time. The Mets\u2019 highest-paid international free agent signing of all time (Pe\u00f1a) is off to an incredible start to his first season in the United States. Benson was a late addition to the Mets\u2019 farm system this spring after starting the season in independent ball, not officially joining the Mets until March 12.<\/p>\n LHP Conner Ware<\/a>: 3.2 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 0 BB, 5 K (5.40 ERA) Conner Ware was not strong in his second outing of the season, but his strikeout-to-walk numbers are still more than enough to hang his hat on. Ernesto Mercedes was ineffective in relief, following up a scoreless season debut with a three-run outing. Jorge de Leon was the only effective Mets reliever, working a scoreless seventh inning with a strikeout and no runners reaching. He has not allowed a base runner in his first two outings this year.<\/p>\n Game 2 (F\/7): St. Lucie (4-4) 11, Dunedin (4-4) 4<\/p>\n Box Score<\/a><\/p>\n The second half of the doubleheader was a complete 180-degree turn for the Mets, with their bats breaking out in a major way while their pitching gave them a few extra chances. Pham reached twice, while AJ Salgado turned in a near-perfect performance at the plate. He and Sam Robinson are off to solid starts with the bat. Robertson has started nicely for the St. Lucie offense after being a 17th-round selection last year, and is a candidate to move through the Mets\u2019 system quickly.<\/p>\n RHP Cam Tilly<\/a>: 3.1 IP, 5 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 2 BB, 5 K (3.24 ERA) Cam Tilly struggled more in his second outing than he ever got close to in his first, but was able to handle it relatively well. His strikeout numbers were still high, but he struggled with hitting spots and leaving the ball over the plate, which was not an issue in his first start when he went five scoreless with six strikeouts. Tyler McLoughlin was almost perfect in long relief before Ryan Dollar finished the second half of the doubleheader.<\/p>\n
