A.J. Minter's Opening Day Status Uncertain Amidst Recovery

A.J. Minter's availability for Opening Day remains uncertain as he continues his recovery from a lat injury that ended his season in late May. However, his absence is expected to be brief. Minter looked strong in 13 appearances prior to the injury and is slated to be a key part of the Mets' bullpen after exercising his player option. Separately, Christian Scott is cleared for full participation in spring training, having recovered from Tommy John surgery.
