Mets' 2025 Rotation Plans Take Shape

As the New York Mets prepare for the 2025 season, they have re-signed Sean Manaea and are banking on the recovery of Kodai Senga and the development of Frankie Montas and Clay Holmes within their rotation. Projections suggest that while Manaea and David Peterson may see a decline, improvements are expected from Montas and Blackburn, with a cumulative ERA of 3.84 projected for the team's rotation. The Mets also have a promising prospect in Brandon Sproat, who has excelled in the minors and is likely to make his Major League debut next season. President of baseball operations David Stearns emphasized the importance of having reliable pitchers, even if they lack a true ace. The team remains interested in bolstering their rotation further, potentially eyeing Japanese sensation Roki Sasaki. Overall, the Mets' pitching staff appears deep and capable heading into 2025, with several options to fill out the rotation effectively.
