  "account": "The New York Mets, who are currently missing the postseason for the second year in a row, are hopeful that reliever Devin Williams may soon return from his shoulder strain. Williams has been working on his mound since September 14 and is expected to throw another bullpen session on September 17. If all goes well, he could be activated two or three days after that, according to MLB.com.\n\nWilliams has been out of the bullpen since August and has contributed 16 saves this season, along with a 4.66 ERA for the Mets. This is Williams' first season with the team, after spending the previous year with the New York Yankees, where he struggled with a 4.79 ERA and six losses.\n\nThe Mets are not the only team dealing with injuries, as left-hander Cionel Perez is also recovering from a forearm strain and is expected to return before year's end. The club is looking to make changes following this disappointing season, as they are 69-81 so far this year. With a large payroll and plenty of talent, including star Juan Soto, the Mets just couldn't put it all together.\n\nThe team will be searching for a new manager for the 2027 campaign, as Carlos Mendoza was recently fired after a rough start to the year. Mendoza had previously led the team to the NLCS in 2024, but the club struggled significantly after that.\n\nIn a game that takes place on Tuesday, the Mets will face their former star Pete Alonso, who now plays for Baltimore. Alonso's return to Queens marks a significant moment for the Mets, as they aim to build on their recent six wins in their last 10 games.",
