ex-Mets in '26*

[Frayed Knot]

OK, never really a NYM at the higher levels, but Jerred Kelenic will NOT make the White Sox opening day roster, something that sounds like it's akin to being left out of the 3rd grade classroom picture.

I peaked in 3rd grade, so that would've really stung.

I peeked often at that age, did you ever see anything good ?

Wilmer Flores will be playing in Mexico this season!

[Edgy MD]

I imagine he is only there until he isn't.

Joey Lucchesi, meanwhile, has been released by the Giants, and at least one guy I saw out there speculated that he should get Bryan Hudson's spot in the pen.

I don’t know about Lucchesi specifically, but DiComo reported this weekend that the Mets aren’t sold on either Hudson or Lovelady as the last man in the ‘pen and are still considering other waiver-wire options.

At least they don't have to see Mrs. Met and her stupid pony tail

Our friend Tomas Nido optioned to the minors by the Tigers.

Nimmo's hitting .389 so far in Texas.

Edwin Diaz to the IL with " loose bodies in his right elbow" per various accounts 

[metirish]

Damn, that sucks 

 

 

[duan]

at least that explains his bad pitching! What's Devin's excuse?

[metirish]

Taijuan Walker has been released by the Phillies.

[whippoorwill]

And it sounds like their fans are happy about it

Tyler Rogers has a 0.68 ERA in 13 relief appearances so far. Gregory Soto has a 1.98 mark in 14 games, while averaging 13,2 K/9. Rico Garcia has a 0.75 ERA and 0.417 WHIP in 12 games.

So what you're saying is several former Mets are prospering upon leaving the Mets.

I did want the Mets to resign Rogers.  He has a proven track record and consistently makes a high number of appearances each year.  Soto threw hard, but did little to make me wish for his return..  I will admit that I had to look up Rico Garcia who pitched pretty effectively for the Mets in limited action in 2025 (8 appearances, 12.2 innings, 0.711 WHIP and 2.11 ERA), but I had no recollection of him.

Carlos Cortes, who languished in the Mets system from 2018 to 2024, is hitting .387/.457/.694 with 4 home runs and 13 RBI in 23 games for the A's this year. Last year, he hit .309/.323/.543 in 94 ABs with the club.
