Edwin Diaz Impresses in Mets Spring Training with Dominant Pitching

The Mets closer, recovering from a knee injury, showcases his elite skills against top hitters, signaling a promising return to the bullpen.

Edwin Diaz, the Mets closer, showcased his exceptional pitching skills in a live batting practice session, facing top hitters like Francisco Lindor, Pete Alonso, and Harrison Bader.
Diaz's performance, including his sharp slider and explosive fastball, has been met with positive feedback from teammates and management, indicating a strong recovery from his knee injury.
Manager Carlos Mendoza and players are optimistic about Diaz's return to form, which could significantly boost the Mets' bullpen, a weak point last season.
Diaz is progressing well in his recovery but is not yet cleared for game action in spring training, focusing on pitcher's fielding practice as the next step.
The Mets bullpen, which struggled last year, is expected to benefit greatly from Diaz's return, especially given his impressive stats from the 2022 season.
