New York Mets right-hander Jonah Tong said that his focus in spring training this year is to "further develop his offspeed pitches," according to Laura Albanese of Newsday. Tong was confident in his fastball and changeup, and "I want to make sure I have the same level of confidence in my other two offerings." The 22-year-old is trying to improve his slider, curveball, and cutter to make him a more well-rounded pitcher as he enters his first full MLB season in 2026. The former seventh-rounder in 2022 made his big-league debut last year and struggled in five starts (18 2/3 innings), allowing 20 runs (16 earned) on 24 hits (three home runs), but he was able to strike out 22 hitters while walking nine. Tong was amazing in the minors, though, posting a 1.43 ERA, 0.92 WHIP, 179 K's, and a 52.9% ground-ball rate in 22 starts. He will certainly need to improve his secondary offerings over a full season in the big leagues, and some critics are worried about his durability because of his slight frame at 6-foot-1, 180 pounds. Tong checks in as RotoBaller's No. 84 starting pitcher for 2026.--Keith Hernandez
