Max Kranick, Hayden Senger Make Opening Day Roster
New York Mets pitchers Max Kranick and Huascar Brazoban and catcher Hayden Senger have made the team's Opening Day roster, according to the New York Daily News' Abbey Mastracco. Kranick, a 27-year-old former 11th-round pick by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2016, earned a spot in the bullpen by giving up only two earned runs while walking one and striking out 15 in 12 1/3 innings over eight Grapefruit League appearances (one start). When he appears in a game for the Mets in the regular season, it will be his first major-league action since 2022 with the Pirates. In 11 outings (nine starts) for the Bucs in 2021-22, Kranick had a 5.56 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 36:220 K:BB in 43 2/3 innings pitched. If he continues to be dominant like he was in spring training, he could get some looks in a high-leverage setup role for the Mets in 2025. Senger, 27, will serve as the backup to Luis Torrens with Francisco Alvarez (hand) on the shelf.
