Happy first day of baseball in 2020! In short order, we will be able to hear the SNY tune with the Mets booth welcoming us to St. Lucie and the Mets renovated stadium. The Mets will play a split-squad schedule to open up spring, with half the squad taking on the Marlins at home and the other half going to Jupiter to take on the Cardinals.

And right away this year we jump into the main position battle for the Queens squad today – who will be the 5th starter – with newly acquired pitcher Rick Porcello making the start at home. On the road, Marcus Stroman makes his first start of Spring.

There are plenty of other interesting pitchers listed on lineup cards today as well. At home, Drew Smith and Ryder Ryan could make their spring debuts and non-roster invitee hopefuls like Chasen Shreve, Adonis Uceta, and Ryley Gilliam are all listed as available. On the road, Erasmo Ramirez, Pedro Payano, and Matt Blackham, all with the Mets on NRI’s are listed as possibly going.

Lineup vs Marlins:

  1. Jeff McNeil  3B
  2. Pete Alonso  1B
  3. Michael Conforto RF
  4. Wilson Ramos  C
  5. Matt Adams DH
  6. Jake Marisnick  CF
  7. Andres Gimenez  SS
  8. Jarrett Parker  LF
  9. Max Moroff  2B

Lineup vs Cardinals:

  1. Amed Rosario  DH
  2. Brandon Nimmo  CF
  3. J.D. Davis  LF
  4. Dominic Smith  1B
  5. Eduardo Nunez  3B
  6. Luis Guillorme  SS
  7. Ryan Cordell  RF
  8. Rene Rivera  C
  9. Jake Hager  2B

It looks like pretty much every starter the Mets have been in the lineup somewhere today. Being the first split-squad game, there are a heavy amount of non-roster invitees in the lineups as well. At home, we’ll get our first look at Matt Adams, Jarrett Parker, and Max Moroff.

On the road, we’ll see Ryan Cordell, Eduardo Nunez, Rene Rivera, and Jake Hager. As a fun trivia note, Ryan Cordell in the lineup and Johneshwy Fargas on the bench were drafted in the same round of the same draft (11th round, 2013).

It’s baseball! There are a lot of new names and we are just so excited to see the greatest sport again! LGM!
