Jeff McNeil - Ramping up activities McNeil has been cleared to ramp up activities soon after an X-ray showed improved healing with his fractured right wrist, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact There's no word yet on McNeil's potential availability for later in the postseason if the Mets keep advancing, but it seems as though the team is at least leaving the door open. McNeil is less than four weeks removed from a projected 4-to-6 week timetable.

Kodai Senga - Throws live batting practice Senga (calf/triceps) threw a 25-pitch live batting practice session Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact Senga is not on the Mets' National League Wild Card Series roster after feeling tightness in his right tricep during a late-September rehab outing. However, the club is not ruling him out for the NLDS, should they advance. If Senga is added to the NLDS roster, he would be used in relief.

Sean Manaea - Tapped for Game 2 start Manaea will start Wednesday in Game 2 of the National League Wild Card Series against the Brewers, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Impact Manaea was knocked around in Milwaukee in his final start of the regular season, but it's no surprise he's getting the nod for Game 2 based on his full body of work during the year, as he finished with a 3.47 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 184:63 K:BB across 181.2 innings. Jose Quintana is a likely bet to start Game 3, if necessary, although Mets manager Carlos Mendoza is holding off naming a starter for that contest for now.

Eddy Alvarez - Removed from 40-man roster The Mets designated Alvarez for assignment Tuesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact The transaction frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for Max Kranick, who made the National League Wild Card Series roster as a long reliever. Alvarez didn't join the Mets' organization until September and, thus, was ineligible for their postseason roster.

J.D. Martinez - Absent from Game 1 lineup Martinez is not in the lineup Tuesday for Game 1 of the National League Wild Card Series against the Brewers, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Impact Martinez saw his playing time cut down the stretch of the regular season as he struggled to a .368 OPS in September. Jesse Winker had similar struggles in the final month but will get a shot at designated hitter in Game 1 versus righty Freddy Peralta.
OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE
Jesse Winker - In Game 1 lineup Winker (back) will start at designated hitter and bat sixth Tuesday in Game 1 of the National League Wild Card Series versus the Brewers, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Impact Winker didn't see any action in the final four games of the regular season while nursing a minor back injury, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go in the first game of the postseason. He went just 3-for-42 at the plate in September.

Jesse Winker - Included on wild-card roster Winker (back) is on the Mets' roster for the National League Wild Card Series against the Brewers.
Impact Winker did not play in the final four games of the regular season while battling a back injury, but the Mets have deemed him healthy enough to be part of their roster for the first round of the playoffs. What is not yet clear is whether Winker will be in the lineup for Game 1 versus righty Freddy Peralta.

Max Kranick - Added to roster The Mets selected Kranick's contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
Impact Kranick was booted off the Mets' 40-man roster back in May and has yet to pitch for them at the major-league level. However, the club has elected to add him to its roster for the wild-card series against the Brewers in a long relief role. Kranick posted a 3.82 ERA and 64:24 K:BB over 70.2 innings this season at Syracuse.
OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE
Tylor Megill - Absent from wild-card roster Megill is not on the Mets' roster for the National League Wild Card Series against the Brewers, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
Impact Megill wasn't going to be available to pitch in the series after throwing 100 pitches over 5.2 innings Monday in Atlanta, so the Mets will carry a long reliever in Max Kranick instead. Should the Mets advance to the NLDS, Megill is a good bet to be added to their roster at that time.
OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE
Francisco Lindor - Plays hero to clinch playoff spot Lindor went 2-for-5 with a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in an 8-7 win over Atlanta during the first game of Monday's dooubleheader.
Impact The matinee features a wild finish that saw 12 of the game's 15 runs cross the plate over the final two innings, but it was Lindor's two-run blast in the top of the ninth off Pierce Johnson that sealed the victory for the Mets and booked their ticket to the playoffs. Lindor was rested for the nightcap, and he wraps up an impressive regular season with a .273/.344/.500 slash line, 33 homers, 29 steals, 91 RBI and 107 runs over 152 contests.
