Marlins claim Tyler Zuber off waivers from Mets, designate Nick Nastrini for assignment

CINCINNATI (AP) — The Miami Marlins claimed reliever Tyler Zuber off waivers from the New York Mets and designated fellow right-hander Nick Nastrini for assignment before their game against the Reds on Wednesday night. The 30-year-old Zuber, who was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville, allowed two runs in two innings in his only appearance for the Mets. He appeared in two games for Tampa Bay last season but has not been a regular in the big leagues since 2021, when Zuber went 0-3 with a 6.26 ERA in 31 appearances for Kansas City.

He appeared in one game for Jacksonville, allowing two runs on four walks and three hit batters in only two innings of work. The 25-year-old Nastrini is 0-7 with a 7.07 ERA in nine career big league appearances. ___ AP MLB:

Mets make 3 roster moves amid Yankees series

Bruce Kluckhohn-Imagn Images. The post Mets make 3 roster moves amid Yankees series appeared first on ClutchPoints. The New York Mets continued to adjust their roster ahead of Saturday's crucial Subway Series showdown with the New York Yankees, making three significant bullpen transactions. In a move that underscores the team's urgency to stay competitive in the NL East, the Mets signed right-hander Zach Pop to a one-year major league deal, designated Tyler Zuber for assignment, and optioned Austin Warren to Triple-A Syracuse. Advertisement All three moves were first reported by Just Mets' Michael Baron, who posted the following update on X, formerly known as Twitter. '#Mets roster moves: RHP Zach Pop (#56) signed to a 1-year Major League contract RHP Austin Warren optioned to Triple-A Syracuse RHP Tyler Zuber designated for assignment' The addition of Pop gives the Mets a potential bullpen stabilizer. While his most recent stint with Seattle saw him post a 13.50 ERA in four appearances, the 28-year-old has a career 4.75 ERA and thrives on generating ground balls with his sinking fastball. He's expected to begin in low-leverage spots as the club evaluates his fit. Meanwhile, Warren was optioned to Triple-A to clear a spot on the active roster. During his brief stint in Queens, he allowed one run over 1.2 innings. In the minors, however, he's recorded a respectable 4.18 ERA and 1.28 WHIP, keeping him in play for a potential call-up later this season depending on the Mets' bullpen needs. Advertisement Zuber was designated for assignment to open up a 40-man roster spot. The right-hander appeared in just one game for the club this year and carries a 5.27 career ERA. Acquired from the Tampa Bay Rays last season, Zuber has spent most of his time in the Mets' minor league system and now becomes a DFA casualty in a roster crunch. The Subway Series matchup carries significant weight, as the Mets enter Saturday just 0.5 games behind the Philadelphia Phillies for first place in the NL East. With Kodai Senga also beginning a rehab assignment in Double-A Binghamton, help could soon be on the way for the rotation as well. The team's recent surge has them squarely in the playoff picture, and every game against a rival like the Yankees carries October-level implications. With several key contributors working back from injury, depth and late-inning reliability remain top priorities. For now, the front office is clearly focused on maintaining bullpen flexibility and momentum after Friday's win over the Yankees. These latest Mets roster moves reflect a team trying to maximize every edge in a playoff race that looks destined to go down to the wire.

Mets sign reliever Zach Pop and add him to bullpen during Subway Series

NEW YORK (AP) — Zach Pop signed a one-year contract with the New York Mets and joined their bullpen Saturday before a Subway Series game against the Yankees. The right-hander made four relief appearances for the Seattle Mariners in June before getting designated for assignment last weekend. Rather than accept an outright assignment to the minors, he elected free agency on Wednesday. Right-hander Austin Warren was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse after throwing 34 pitches over 1 2/3 innings in relief Friday for the Mets during their 6-5 victory over the crosstown-rival Yankees. Right-hander Tyler Zuber was designated for assignment to clear a spot for Pop on the 40-man roster. Pop permitted one run over 4 1/3 innings in his first three outings with the Mariners but then was tagged for eight runs — seven earned — in one inning June 26 at Minnesota. He gave up six hits, two walks and two homers in that game. The 28-year-old Pop grew up in Canada before going to college at Kentucky. He is 8-5 with a 4.75 ERA and one save in 162 major league games over five seasons with Miami, Toronto and Seattle. In other news, Mets ace Kodai Senga was set to make a rehab start Saturday night for Double-A Binghamton against Hartford. Senga, one of 13 Mets pitchers on the injured list, was expected to throw 60-65 pitches and could return to New York's injury-ravaged rotation next weekend in Kansas City just before the All-Star break. Senga strained his right hamstring covering first base on June 12 and the Mets went into a 3-14 tailspin afterward. The right-hander is 7-3 with a 1.47 ERA in 13 starts this season. Right-handed starter Tylor Megill (elbow sprain) is beginning to play catch. Lefty reliever Brooks Raley (Tommy John surgery) has been pitching well during his minor league rehab assignment but isn't expected back until after the All-Star break, manager Carlos Mendoza said. ___ AP MLB:
