Observations from Mets’ spring training on Tuesday in Port St. Lucie:

Ramping up

Clay Holmes threw three innings of live batting practice Tuesday as part of his accelerated buildup for next month’s World Baseball Classic.

The right-hander will pitch for Team USA.

Freddy’s work

Freddy Peralta threw two innings in the same live batting practice session as Holmes.

Caught my eye

Francisco Lindor stood next to Marcus Semien during a fielding drill and received flips to his right hand.

Lindor underwent hamate bone surgery on his left hand last week and is dealing with a recovery that has left him questionable for Opening Day.
