Tyrone Taylor

Tyrone Taylor took part in Wednesday’s full-squad workout, signaling that he is fully recovered from offseason surgeries, per Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. Taylor underwent an umbilical hernia repair on Oct. 30 and had a loose body removed from his right elbow on Nov. 7, both with estimated two-month recovery timelines.

Fantasy Impact

Taylor enters camp as a candidate to open the season as the Mets’ starting center fielder, though he will face competition from Jose Siri and Starling Marte. If he secures regular playing time, his power-speed potential could make him a useful late-round fantasy option. However, a potential timeshare could limit his upside, making his role worth monitoring throughout spring training.

Mets outfielder Tyrone Taylor should have a normal spring coming off hernia and elbow surgeries in 2024.

Fantasy Impact

Taylor re-upped with the Mets this winter after hitting .248 alongside a .700 OPS with the club in 2024. He will likely operate as a fourth/platoon outfielder with the team in 2025 and will look for an increase in power after hitting just seven homers in 345 plate appearances in 2024.

The Mets and Tyrone Taylor have agreed to a one-year deal to avoid arbitration.

Fantasy Impact

Taylor posted a .248 batting average, seven home runs, and 35 RBI in 130 games last season. He will likely open the season as the fourth outfielder on the Mets' roster.

Tyrone Taylor is in the starting lineup for the Mets Sunday.
