The right-hander is stretching out for potential starting duty if needed, but otherwise will open the season in the Mets bullpen.

Staying active

Francisco Lindor participated in baserunning drills with his teammates for the first time while rehabbing from left hamate bone surgery, which has left him questionable for Opening Day.

Caught my eye

In a matchup of potential Hall of Famers, Craig Kimbrel faced Juan Soto twice in live batting practice.

Soto hit an infield grounder and walked in those two plate appearances.

Thursday’s schedule

Full-squad workouts continue ahead of Saturday’s Grapefruit League opener against the Marlins at Clover Park.
