41-year-old Benito Santiago, who last played in the majors in May 2005, intends to attempt a comeback next season.

Santiago signed with the Mets after being released by the Pirates in May 2005, but he didn't get called up and chose to head home in July. He announced his intentions to play in 2006 about a year ago this time, but he didn't follow through. He's currently hitting .250 through 14 games in the Puerto Rican League. "I think I can help anybody," he said. "I'm playing like I was five or six years ago. And if someone comes to see me in Puerto Rico, they'll see it, too." Beggars can't be choosers, but it sounds like Santiago would like to join the Phillies. Thu, Nov 30, 2006 02:18:00 PM

Batters
Pos	Role	Name
C	1	Devin Mesoraco
	2	Kevin Plawecki
	3	Travis d'Arnaud 60-Day DL Travis d'Arnaud underwent Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery on Tuesday morning. Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News hears the procedure was successful. The 29-year-old catcher will be out for the remainder of the 2018 season. Tomas Nido and Jose Lobaton are sharing time behind the plate for the Mets with Kevin Plawecki currently on the shelf with a hand injury. Apr 17
1B	1	Dominic Smith
2B	1	Asdrubal Cabrera
	2	T.J. Rivera 60-Day DL T.J. Rivera (elbow) will be sidelined until at least July. Rivera said prior to spring training that he hoped to return by May, but he still has plenty of benchmarks that he needs to hit. The infielder had Tommy John surgery last September. May 11
SS	1	Amed Rosario
	2	Jose Reyes
	3	Luis Guillorme
3B	1	Todd Frazier
	2	Wilmer Flores
	3	David Wright 60-Day DL David Wright (back, shoulder) fielded grounders at Citi Field on Sunday. He was not allowed to do anything throwing, although Wright did begin playing catch last week as he slowly ramps up baseball activities. The veteran third baseman hasn't given up hope of returning at some point this season from his back and shoulder issues, but it remains a long shot. He hasn't appeared in a major league game since May 27, 2016. Jun 3
LF	1	Yoenis Cespedes 10-Day DL Yoenis Cespedes (hip/quad) was held out of rehab activities this weekend due to ongoing soreness. Cespedes landed on the disabled list back in mid-May because of a right hip/quad issue and he had to leave a rehab game earlier this month because of renewed tightness. The Mets had expected him to be back by now, but obviously no return is imminent at this point. Cespedes will resume physical therapy on Monday. Jun 17
	2	Brandon Nimmo
	3	Jose Bautista
CF	1	Michael Conforto
	2	Juan Lagares 60-Day DL Mets transferred OF Juan Lagares from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. Lagares is expected to miss the remainder of the season after being diagnosed earlier this month with a torn plantar plate in his left foot. This is a paperwork move to clear out a 40-man roster spot. May 30
RF	1	Jay Bruce 10-Day DL Mets placed OF Jay Bruce on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to June 18, with a hip injury. Bruce had missed four of the Mets' last five games due to back and hip issues, and he'll now be sidelined for at least the next nine days. The 31-year-old outfielder has batted just .212/.292/.321 with three home runs and 17 RBI in 236 plate appearances this season for New York. He's in the first year of a three-year, $39 million free agent deal. Jun 19
Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Noah Syndergaard 10-Day DL Noah Syndergaard (finger) has yet to resume a throwing program but is "feeling better every day," Mets manager Mickey Callaway said Saturday. "We’re just waiting for that last little bit to clear up so we can start that progression we talked about," Callaway added. Syndergaard is dealing with a strained ligament in his right index finger and hasn't made a start in over three weeks. He's obviously still got a ways to go, but things appear to be trending in a positive direction. Jun 17
	2	Jacob deGrom
	3	Steven Matz
	4	Jason Vargas
	5	Zack Wheeler
	6	Seth Lugo
	7	Rafael Montero 60-Day DL Mets placed RHP Rafael Montero on the 60-day disabled list with a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. Montero is set to undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery on Tuesday. He'll miss the entire 2018 season and will likely be a bit behind at the start of next season, as well. Mar 27
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Jeurys Familia
	2	A.J. Ramos 10-Day DL A.J. Ramos is considering surgery for his right shoulder. Ramos is getting a second opinion before deciding on surgery or a more conservative approach. Either way, he's not expected to pitch for the Mets anytime soon. Ramos had an ugly 6.41 ERA and 1.63 WHIP over 28 appearances prior to going down with right rotator cuff tendinitis. Jun 12
	3	Anthony Swarzak
	4	Robert Gsellman
	5	Jerry Blevins
	6	Paul Sewald
	7	Chris Beck
	8	Hansel Robles
	9	Tim Peterson
