Torrens activated off the injured list, rejoining the Mets behind the plate as Alvarez pushes through injuries, reinstating a solid catching tandem for NYM.

Torrens is nearing activation after a forearm issue, with a planned seven-inning workload in Syracuse. His return could bolster Mets catching depth and offer a more stable defensive corps, impacting bench and bullpen dynamics.

Torrens has been a defensive-minded catcher who’s delivered offense with recent hot RBI pace (.417 with five RBI over last week). He’s valuable in catcher-utility spots for his defense and occasional offensive bursts, making him a viable Week 24 RBI option for Mets lineups.

Torrens landed on the IL with a right forearm contusion after being struck by a ball. Optimism centers on no fracture; activation expected after 10 days as inflammation subsides. He’s helped by strong caught-stealing numbers and recent plate production, but the injury introduces a volatile playing-time dynamic at catcher.

Torrens delivers power and run production at catcher for Mets, providing a rare blend for a Week 24 add. With the position thin, his recent plate discipline and power taps can swing weekend categories for fantasy managers in deep leagues.
