Availability
Mets outfielder Mike Tauchman underwent surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee and is expected to miss six weeks.
Fantasy Impact
Tauchman was enjoying a nice spring before his left knee injury cost him an Opening Day roster spot with the Mets. The 35-year-old hit .263 with nine homers and a .756 OPS in 93 games for the White Sox last season and should be a nice left-handed-hitting option for the Mets once healthy.
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Mike Tauchman has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his right knee and will require surgery.
Fantasy Impact
Tauchman suffered the injury in a spring training game. He will miss at least the next 4-6 weeks.
Mike Tauchman left Saturday’s spring training game against the Astros with an apparent left leg injury.
Fantasy Impact
Tauchman had been competing for a spot on the Mets Opening Day roster. His status will need to be monitored in the next couple of days.
The Mets and outfielder Mike Tauchman have agreed to a minor-league deal.
Fantasy Impact
The Mets could be getting a bargain on a player coming off an injury-shortened season in which he posted a 115 wRC+. The lefty-swinging veteran has produced a bat superior to the league average in each of the last three seasons and could help replace the offseason departure of lefty-swinging outfielder Brandon Nimmo in Queens.
The White Sox have non-tendered Mike Tauchman.
Fantasy Impact
Tauchman's 2025 season was limited to just 93 games due to a variety of injuries. The veteran outfielder will likely latch on with a new team as a depth outfielder.
