McNeil was on hand with the Mets prior to Wednesday's NLDS Game 4 to take infield and batting practice: The New York Post reported earlier this week that the Mets were considering a petition to Major League Baseball to allow McNeil to partake in the AFL in response to the impact Hurricane Milton would have on their Florida-based facilities.

The Mets have been given permission to put McNeil in the AFL this upcoming weekend. If he responds well, he could be included on the team's NLCS roster. Of course, the Mets have to wrap up the NLDS first.

As the New York Mets continue their postseason journey, a potential boost to their lineup looms with Jeff McNeil preparing for game action in the Arizona Fall League (AFL). Should the Mets advance, this move aims to bring McNeil back into the fold just in time for the NLCS (National League Championship Series).
