Active Roster Moves 2021

[Edgy MD]

If Stroman arrived, joined the team, dressed, and prepared for his start without being activated, well, I'm not sure the Yankees would have someone petty enough to accuse the Mets of using the Bereavement List (and Stro to use the death of his grandma) to stash a pitcher in between starts so they could otherwise use his roster spot.



But I bet WFAN does. Some shit would be made of it. Oh, there would be shit.

Nick Tropeano is a man.

The 27th man.

[Lefty Specialist]

Nick Tropeano sounds like a Vegas lounge act.

[G-Fafif]

Yennsy Diaz has replaced IL-bound England Dan and Sean Reid-Foley (elbows inflammation).

Villar back. Almora, his minuscule batting average and enormous ERA go to Syracuse.

[G-Fafif]

Corey Oswalt to the IL, Robert Stock up to take his place.

[G-Fafif]

Nicky “the Trope” Tropeano is 27th Man for 2nd Game.

[G-Fafif]

Stock is optioned; Tropeano stays and is promoted to 26th man.

Another rainout for Syracuse which means another game that JD Davis didn't play. Tuesday, he walked 3 times. Wednesday, he struck out 3 times so he hasn't put a ball in play since Sunday which means more time in the minors.

[G-Fafif]

Geoff Hartlieb has assumed the role of The 27th Man.

[G-Fafif]

Roster back to 26. Hartlieb returned to the Cuse.



Tropeano optional. Eickhoff recalled.



Tarpley DFA'd.

[G-Fafif]

[Edgy MD]

Booo!



Eickhoff really dodged a bullet there.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Yeah, McSkinney will hit 11 home rims for the MFYs or the Marlins, whichever of the two that claim him

[seawolf17]

Look, friends, Billy McKinney is a nice player, but he wasn't going to be part of a meaningful pennant run. Thanks for the memories, Billy. Looking forward to his name coming up in a 2025 off-season quiz and thinking "oh yeah, THAT guy."

[kcmets]

That's heartless, man! (j/k, lol)



He was fun while it lasted.

Ha! Seawolf loves Eickhoff!

[G-Fafif]

Lindor to the IL with a strained oblique. Blankenhorn called up.

[Edgy MD]

I'd like to sing a song called, "Not to to Be a Dick but We Should've Kept McKinney"! Join in on the chorus!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

We shoulda kept McKinney

Our power was already skinny

How could we be so silly

We're sure to miss you Billy



Instead we kept Jerad Eickoff

Hey Scott, why doncha fuck off

The Mets abuse the IR

Now it's goddam Lindor

[Edgy MD]

He was my ... itsy-bitsy, teenie-weenie, lefty outfield bat McSkinny!

That I miss for the first time today!

My itsy-bitsy, teenie-weenie, lefty outfield bat McSkinny!

They DFA'd him, though I hoped that he stay!

[G-Fafif]

DeGrom going on the IL.

[Frayed Knot]

DeGrom going on the IL.

[bmfc1]

Just 3 days, so next Sunday. Hopefully in 2021.

[bmfc1]

[duan]

wow - poor Johneshwy!

That's some rough justice there. Starting centre-fielder to DFA by putting your body on the line.

Jeez.

[G-Fafif]

Eickhoff DFA'd for Stock.

[G-Fafif]

One more:

[Edgy MD]

Ouch.

[bmfc1]
