Overview
- The Mets, who own MLB’s worst record, are expected to promote outfielder A.J. Ewing on Tuesday for the Tigers series, according to multiple reports.
- Ewing is a left-handed hitter with elite speed who played only 12 games at Triple-A and is being asked to help a lineup that has struggled badly against right-handed pitching.
- Manager Carlos Mendoza said Jorge Polanco remains on the injured list with lingering Achilles bursitis, even as his wrist has improved.
- The Dodgers officially activated Mookie Betts from the injured list after a right oblique strain, restoring a star to the top of their order.
- The Rangers scratched Nathan Eovaldi due to left-side tightness and sent him for imaging, underscoring how injuries are reshaping rotations and prompting quick roster moves across May.
