Who Do You Put on the Postseason Roster?

Who do you put on the Mets postseason roster?

We can safely assume that the first 20 spots are total locks:
Catchers (2): Alvarez, Torrens
Infielders (4): Alonso, Iglesias, Lindor, Vientos
Outfielders (5): Bader, Marte, Nimmo, Taylor, Winker
Designated Hitter (1): Martinez
Starting Pitchers (3): Manaea, Peterson, Severino
Relief Pitchers (5): Butto, Diaz, Garrett, Maton, D. Young

This leaves you 6 additional choices. Specify below: do you want a big bench? A deep bullpen? Starters-turned-relievers?

A lot depends on what Senga can do.

I just wish I could check José Azocar more than once.

Acuna. Alvarez.

What do our bullpen options look like?

Temped to go fill the pen with the rest of our rotation.

And maybe drop jd.

Senga started for Syracuse tonight and pitched a scoreless inning, walking one and striking out two.
Later

That pretty much clinches Quintana’s spot (at least in later rounds; might go with an extra reliever in the wild card rounds).

May depend on Lindor also, that's why I added Baty if he is available

Yeah, such a weird year for Kodai with niggling injuries

Baty’s played in Syracuse a couple games over the last week. He can be brought back (and might be soon, given that Eddy Alvarez is ineligible for the postseason).

Eddy Alvarez should be ineligible to play in MLB period

Why not? Is there something I don't know about Eddy Alvarez?



Anyway, I came here to post this at best mildly interesting information.

There are nine players who appeared in the NL Wild Card Series for the Mets in 2022 who have a chance to play in their second post-season as Mets.

They are:
Pete Alonso
Francisco Alvarez
Edwin Diaz
Francisco Lindor
Starling Marte
Jeff McNeil
Brandon Nimmo
Adam Ottavino
David Peterson

McNeil, of course, may be a longshot, but there's a chance.



In addition, Tomas Nido and Drew Smith played in that series and were also 2024 Mets, but both are out of the picture.

So we sat alongside the bullpen last week and saw a bunch of forgotten guys just hanging out there including Sean Reid-Foley and Drew Smith.

Baty was with the team in Atlanta and I wouldn’t be shocked to see him on the roster.

Well, Quintana probably pitches the third game in Milwaukee if needed. So he's definitely on.

Megill pitched yesterday so he couldn't be used, therefore off the roster.

There has to be somebody better than Brazoban on the 40-man.

Do we know when the roster will be officially announced? If I recall correctly from previous postseasons, it may be as late as about an hour before game time.

I understood it was a 10 AM (local time where game is being played) deadline to submit it. The Royals already announced their roster publicly.

Max Kranick made the roster. Megill was left off.

No other surprises.

Max Kranick trying to pull off what Matt Reynolds couldn’t — make his Mets debut in the postseason. Reynolds was added in 2015 after Tejada was brutally assaulted in the LDS, yet didn’t play. He was removed for the World Series once Uribe was deemed fit.

Can you option Kranick after game 1?
