Show Notes
Carson Benge, a 23-year-old rookie outfielder, has secured a starting position on the New York Mets Opening Day roster, marking the first time a Mets rookie has done so since Pete Alonso in 2019. Benges impressive spring training performance, including a .366 batting average and .435 on-base percentage, earned him the spot. Despite the pressure of New Yorks media spotlight, Benge is expected to hit near the bottom of the order in a revamped Mets squad aiming for a deeper playoff push after a tough 2025 season.
