Manaea's Perfect Innings, Mets' New Arms & Roster Changes

0:00It's March 17th for the New York Mets, let's get into it. Follow and subscribe for more team news every day. Sean Manaya put on a strong showing in the Mets spring training game against the Miami Marlins on Tuesday. He tossed four perfect innings with four strikeouts against the lineup full of their opening day starters. Even without his top velocity yet, the veteran lefty gave fans reason to feel good. Mia helped power the Mets to the National League Championship Series in 2024 with a 12 and 6 record and a 3.4. Seven earned run average. That earned him a three year deal, but his first season in 2025 turned into a struggle. Meanwhile, the Mets have two new arms, drawing big buzz heading into 2026. They traded for Freddie Peralta without an extension yet, and Nolan McLean impressed in eight starts last year with a 2.06 earned run average. The team also rebuilt after a late September collapse in 2025.

1:00Fan favorites Peter Lanzo and Brandon Nemo are out, replaced by Marcus Semyon and Boba Shet up the middle. Manaya now gets to build back quietly without all the pressure. If the velocity returns in the new roster clicks, Queens could be buzzing come October again. This story is shared with support from our sponsor. A pillow that sounds as good as it feels.
