Mets Fall 4-0 to Dodgers as Luke Weaver Inks $22 Million Deal

# Mets Shut Out by Dodgers in Los Angeles The New York Mets lost 4-0 to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday in Los Angeles. Luke Weaver signed a two-year contract worth $22 million with the New York Mets. Weaver spoke before the Mets' Monday game about his approach to performing under pressure.

During the New York Mets game against the Athletics on Saturday, April 11, 2026, at Citi Field in Queens, NY, Luke Weaver allowed four earned runs on three hits and one walk in the eighth inning.

Weaver gave up a three-run home run to Athletics left fielder Tyler Soderstrom during the eighth inning of that game. In an outing against the Diamondbacks, Luke Weaver recorded only two outs and surrendered two earned runs on two hits, and was charged with a blown save.

Injury Update from Manager Juan Soto was placed on the injured list eight days ago with a timetable of two to three weeks for return to play.

Soto continues to receive treatment for his strained right calf but has not begun running, according to Carlos Mendoza. Mendoza indicated that it is unclear if Soto might need at-bats in the minor leagues before returning to the Mets lineup. Soto may receive at-bats in simulated game settings at Citi Field.

Soto may receive additional imaging pretty soon to determine his progress.

After Hamstring Issue Clay Holmes departed his start on Friday with left hamstring discomfort.

Holmes threw a side session and has been cleared for his scheduled start on Wednesday, according to Carlos Mendoza.

Mauricio was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse.

Mauricio's optioning cleared space for Tommy Pham to join the New York Mets team. Mauricio was recalled on the last homestand to provide a bat off the bench after Juan Soto was placed on the injured list. Mauricio went 1-for-4, including a walk-off single in the 10th inning against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.
