Game preview and setting
Sunday at Oracle Park brings the Mets to the Giants in week 54 of 2025. Fans feel the cool bay wind while pitchers warm up on the mound. The Mets send Kodai Senga to start, and the Giants counter with Logan Webb. This matchup pairs two durable arms that could shape the early season story.
Mets pitching and bullpen changes
The Mets mix veterans and new arms to stabilize last season's late struggles. Kodai Senga gives an electric fastball and a ghost fork when healthy. Freddy Peralta brings strikeout upside and durability, while starters like David Peterson add depth. Devin Williams takes over the ninth inning, so bullpen roles could look different early on.
Giants pitching and lineup notes
San Francisco leans on Logan Webb for long outings and Robbie Ray for support. Their staff emphasizes steadiness and efficiency more than pure dominance. Rafael Devers gives the lineup power after his move to the Giants. Ryan Walker is expected to close games, though he profiles as a more serviceable option than a dominant shutdown arm.
Key players, injuries, and outlook
Juan Soto anchors the Mets lineup with patient hitting and power, but he is day-to-day with a strain. Francisco Lindor brings smooth defense and leadership up the middle. The Mets are 4-4 early, while the Giants sit at 3-5. If starters stay healthy, both staffs could set tone for how their seasons develop.
