Mets remain bullish on pitching depth as race for final rotation spots takes shape
Briefly

The New York Mets are navigating a challenging start to their season with injuries to key pitchers Frankie Montas and Sean Manaea. Despite these setbacks, manager Carlos Mendoza remains optimistic about the rotation options available, noting that all candidates have performed well during Grapefruit League outings. Kodai Senga, David Peterson, and Clay Holmes are seen as key members of the rotation, with promising performances. The team plans to utilize a six-man rotation early in the season, relying on several other pitchers to fill gaps as needed.
Notably, Senga looks healthy… with a tweaked slider and a new sinker, while Holmes hasn't allowed a run in six innings, transitioning effectively from Yankees reliever to Mets starter.
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza expressed confidence in his rotation options despite injuries, stating they feel good after watching each candidate at least once through the order in the Grapefruit League.
