7/03/25	IN FOCUS: Mack's #11 Mets Prospect - Clay Holmes, Kevin Pillar, Phil Rizzuto, Nolan McLean, Sandy Alcantara, Merrill Kelly, Free Agent Bats, OAA Leaders. Chris Suero is a 21-year-old New York Mets prospect, born on January 27, 2004, in the Dominican Republic, and raised in the Bronx, New York. A versatile athlete, Suero primarily plays catcher but also logs time at first base and left field, showcasing his athleticism and positional flexibility. Signed by the Mets for a modest $10,000, he has emerged as a legitimate prospect, ranked No. 20 in the Mets' farm system. Position and Skills: Suero is noted for his uncommon speed and pull power for a catcher, with average-to-above-average arm strength. Source: http://macksmets.blogspot.com/2025/07/in-focus-mac...
7/02/25	Tuesday rainout gives Mets some bullpen relief but throws the rotation into question. Rain in the northeast was both beneficial for the Mets and their beleaguered pitching staff, and detrimental. With Tuesday's series opener against the Milwaukee Brewers postponed, forcing a midweek doubleheader, the relief corps received an extra day off, giving the Mets a full bullpen and an extra arm to play two games Wednesday. With Clay Holmes pushed back to Wednesday, the Mets would have liked to use left-hander Sean Manaea on Sunday in the Subway Series. Source: https://www.nydailynews.com/2025/07/02/mets-brewer...
7/01/25	Mets and Brewers postponed because of rain, rescheduled for day-night doubleheader on Wednesday. The opener of a three-game series between the Milwaukee Brewers and New York Mets was postponed because of rain Tuesday and rescheduled as a day-night doubleheader. The series is to begin Wednesday with the makeup game at 1:10 p.m. and the previously scheduled game at 7:10 p.m. New York's Clay Holmes and Milwaukee's Freddy Peralta, who had been slated to start Tuesday, will start the day game. Hard-throwing Milwaukee rookie Jacob Misiorowski will start the night game, and the Mets were unsure which pitcher they would send to the mound.

Try it free For years, the Yankees and pitching coach Matt Blake have gained a reputation for taking relievers that have been mediocre — or worse — with other organizations and turning those afterthoughts into useful — or better — bullpen pieces in The Bronx. There was Clay Holmes, who went from wallowing with Pittsburgh to Yankees closer, and other lesser-known arms like lefties Wandy Peralta and Lucas Luetge, as well as right-hander Ian Hamilton.

New York took the opener of the three-game series with a 4-2 win to end Colorado's first three-game winning streak of the season. The Mets will try to clinch the series when they send right-hander Clay Holmes (6-3, 3.07 ERA) to the mound against Rockies rookie left-hander Carson Palmquist (0-4, 8.50) on Saturday night in Denver.

6/01/25	Yankees Have Hidden Gem in Bullpen. The New York Yankees, with a major assist from pitching coach Matt Blake, have worked their magic time and time again when it comes to getting the most out of overlooked and undervalued relievers. From Clay Holmes to Luke Weaver and everyone in between, there's plenty of examples to draw upon of the Yankees essentially picking players up off the scrap heap and turning them into key contributors for one of the league's best bullpens season after season. A Minnesota Twins ninth-round pick out of Illinois State University in the 2019 MLB Draft, Headrick posted ERAs of 3.71 and 3.32 in the minor leagues during the 2021 and 2022 campaigns, respectively, while primarily working as a starter.

5/26/25	Mets' Clay Holmes shares true feelings about hitting milestone in White Sox game. The New York Mets continue to roll, as they earned their third win in a row on Monday, defeating the Chicago White Sox in a series opener at Citi Field, 2-1. Mets starting pitcher Clay Holmes did not earn a pitching win, but he allowed just an earned run on four hits to go along with three strikeouts and three free passes in 5 2/3 innings of work. Making Holmes' start against the White Sox more notable was the fact that he threw for 102 pitches, his first 100-pitch game for the Mets — and also his most in a game so far in his career in the big leagues.

5/26/25	Mets and, yes, White Sox are upbeat going into series. The New York Mets hope they delivered a statement by winning two out of three games against the defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers. The Chicago White Sox, fresh off one of the worst seasons of all-time, traveled to New York frustrated they didn't finish authoring a more declarative statement of their own Sunday. The Mets will look to build off back-to-back wins while the White Sox aim to continue their climb toward respectability Monday afternoon when New York hosts Chicago in the opener of a three-game interleague series.

Staring wasn't exactly new for him, but things have changed since he had last toed the rubber as starter for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Holmes already had an idea of how he wanted to structure his workload and what his days in between starts would look like. When he started talking to the team trainers and pitching coaches, he refined that routine. Source: https://www.nydailynews.com/2025/05/19/mets-clay-h...

Holmes made his return to Bronx for the first time this weekend for the Subway Series against his former team and explained how weird it felt to be in the opposing clubhouse. Holmes revealed he still speaks with several relievers on the Yankees and coaches, which isn't surprising. “You know, last night, the atmosphere, there was a ton of energy, and it took me back to the last time I was on this field for the World Series,” Holmes explained.
