Polanco Pushes for First Base Return | New York Mets News

Jorge Polanco is pushing to reclaim his spot as the Mets’ regular first baseman, despite ankle issues that have sidelined him mostly as a DH — he’ll start grounders next week to rebuild his readiness. Signed for $40M, he’s only played two games at first but feels confident in his recovery. Meanwhile, Juan Soto gets a day off due to calf soreness and All-Star duties, expected back Friday. Pitcher Clay Holmes gears up for his first rehab start since May’s fibula break, throwing in simulated games. The Mets also continue their rough stretch against the NL Central, with just 7 wins in 25 games.
