It’s not quite a Subway Series, but as Spring Training winds down ahead of the 2025 MLB season, the New York Mets and Yankees will meet for the first and only time during the preseason this afternoon.
It’s been a big offseason for the Mets, who signed highly sought-after free agent Juan Soto to a record 15-year contract in December. Soto comes to Queens from the Bronx, where he spent the 2024 season with the Yankees.
Opening Day rosters and pitching rotations are beginning to solidify with just a few more days until the 2025 MLB season officially begins.
After today, the Yankees will play one more Grapefruit League contest before returning home for Opening Day. The Mets will wrap up spring training with today’s game and then head to Houston ahead of their Opening Day matchup against the Astros.
