Game Notes<\/p>\n

Mets manager Carlos Manager confirmed that RHP Robert Stock<\/a> has been diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome and will need to undergo surgery. He first felt the issue while pitching with Team Israel at the World Baseball Classic.<\/p>\n

Mets manger Carlos Mendoza<\/a> also confirmed that LHP Brandon Waddell<\/a> felt some shoulder discomfort, so he will no longer pitch Monday.<\/p>\n

Three Things To Watch For<\/p>\n

Freddy Peralta.\u00a0Peralta looked good in his first spring start last week going three innings, striking out three and didn\u2019t allow any runs or hits. Given it is several pitchers second start of spring, pitch counts will be interesting to watch. Prior to the game, manager Carlos Mendoza said to expect him to throw about 55 pitches. Peralta is coming off of his first 33 start season, his third 30-plus start season in a row. He hit a career high in innings last year at 176 2\/3.
\nFrancisco Alvarez.\u00a0Alvarez has gone 2-for-5 at the plate in official spring training games this year with a double and a walk. As a hitter, he is 1-for-1 in ABS challenges. As a catcher, he is 0-for-1.
\nJorge Polanco.\u00a0Polanco had five chances in his first spring training game and had five put outs with zero errors. He\u2019ll get more reps at his new position today. Polanco has had a slow start to the spring at the plate going 0-for-5 over his first two games.<\/p>\n
