McLean's WBC Debut Delayed by Illness, Symptoms Revealed

Nolan McLean's report to Team USA for the World Baseball Classic has been delayed due to "vertigo-like symptoms and a loss of appetite" experienced on Friday. While he has recovered and is no longer symptomatic, the Mets opted to keep him in camp for observation. He is still expected to join Team USA after throwing a side session and playing catch without issue. McLean had a strong 2025 season for the Mets, going 5-1 with a 2.06 ERA.
