"He tells Anthony DiComo of MLB.com that he's about a month behind the other pitchers in camp. He hopes to get into a Grapefruit League game before spring training is done but isn't guaranteed to do so. The injury tracker at MLB.com lists his expected return as early May."
"From 2020 to 2023, he gave Atlanta 208 2/3 innings while allowing 2.89 earned runs per nine. He struck out 30.7% of batters faced while only giving out walks at a 7.8% pace."
"He was healthy enough by Opening Day last year to break camp with the Mets but only tossed 11 innings before the lat strain popped up. After missing most of the 2025 campaign, he understandably decided not to opt out of the second year of his contract."
Minter, a 32-year-old left-handed pitcher, underwent surgery to repair a torn lat in early May and is approximately one month behind other pitchers in spring training. He is unlikely to appear in a Grapefruit League game before spring training concludes and is not expected to be available for Opening Day. MLB.com's injury tracker lists his expected return as early May, with a potential rehab assignment required if he reaches game action near that timeframe. Minter previously had a strong run from 2020 to 2023 with Atlanta, posting a 2.89 ERA over 208 2/3 innings. After injury-plagued 2024 and 2025 seasons, he signed a two-year, $22 million deal with the Mets and chose not to exercise his opt-out clause.
