Clay Holmes debuted as a starting pitcher for the Mets in a spring training game against the Astros, marking his first start since 2019. He delivered an impressive performance, completing three perfect innings while striking out three batters and using only 34 pitches. Having joined the team on a three-year contract, Holmes is evolving his pitching style by incorporating a changeup to better complement his sinker. His enthusiasm and energy were evident, feeling excited to contribute to his new team and its defense during the game.
"A new team, the first start in a real game in a while, I was just reflecting on that and realizing the opportunity that I have and who I am doing it with."
"I think it's going to be a weapon to lefties, but I think really it's going to help me protect my sinker."
