Obviously, there's a lot to take in here, including Wilfredo Lara's sexy cowboy hat, which is sadly no longer representative of the organization he toils for.

Part of the Stearns strategy here seems to have been to get pitchers who were veterans, but came to the big leagues late, and so still had a few years of control beyond the current season, or even some options. So his strategy of philosophy of keeping the organization nimble is intact. Most obvious among them is Huascar Brazobán, who is 34 years old, but has less than two years of service time accrued, as his journey to the majors took him through indy ball, Winter ball in the Carribbean, etc.

Look forward to seeing the Mets have a lot of arms going up and down to try and get them through this August marathon. And if they make the post-season, hopefully, they'll have a gajillion good choices to choose from when making their roster.

We welcome fifth-rounder Trey Snyder to the loving embrace the comes to draftees who sign. Still on the outside looking in are Jaxson Jelkin, a righthander out of Houston taken in the ninth round, and high school shortstop Adam Haight, taken in round 20.

Huascar Brazobán is the first to get a call, with Tyler Zuber kept in reserver. One presumes that their other two acquisitions meet them in Aanaheim.

Or not. But the team currently has four starters, and Paul Blackburn is scheduled to go Friday night, so look for him to be added, at least.

Adrian Houser and Ty Adcock took in a Dylan show a few nights ago. They mostly had a real good time, but things took a somber turn when Bob played "I Shall Be Released."

Adrian Houser was DFA'd before the trade deadline, so theoretically, the Mets could have pawned his contract off, but presumably found no buyers. He has enough service time accrued that he would have been entitled to his MLB salary for the rest of the year even if he refused a minor-league assignment, so they opted just to release him.

Ty Adock got DFA's after the trade deadline, so there was never going to be any shuffling off of his rights to somebody else. Rather than even try to get him through waivers, the Mets just released him for looking kind of like Houser.

That's what we heard, anyhow.

The ultimate fates of Jake Diekman and Logan Porter are still TBD.

By coincidence, Paul Blackburn's last start was against the Angels. We wish it was a happy coincidence, but Blackie got lit up for four runs (including two homers) in five innings.

Better luck this time, Blackie Lawless!

Jake Diekman has $4 million vesting option if he gets over X amount of appearances, and that X number is within reach, so no team was likely to grab him off waivers. But he can now negotiate a new deal.

Reed Garrett and Sean Reid-Foley on rehab assignments can help explain why the Mets went for relievers with options at the deadline. If one or both of those guys can return and contribute, things can get crowded quickly in the pen.

Karell Paz was signed as a multi-talented, athletic outfielder out of Cuba, but over the course of his three year tenure in the Mets' system, none of his skills really stood out. Nonetheless, he was doing alright up until having a pretty poor season this year in Brooklyn, and his release is something of a surprise and disappointment to pacifists everywhere.

Nick Bautista III was only signed back in mid-May, and during his ten-week tenure, continued his Nook LaLoosh imitation, whiffing guys at a prodigious rate and walking them at all other times. His next organization will be his third, and maybe that's what the III is for. In the meantime, he'll go back to his work as a Pete Davidson body double.

The Mets kept trying to move José Hernandez to another position, but he didn't hit well enough to justify any other existence besides catching. That calling card played itself out.

Grant Hartwig isn't really being demoted, so much as still recovering from injury, and his trip to Bingo is something of an unofficial rehab assignment. Unless he stinks, then it's a demotion. But he's still on the 40-Player Roster, so he's still got that going for him.

We are forced to temper all expectations of what Reed Garrett and Sean Reid-Foley will be able to offer when they return, but a pen that includes them both healthy, along with Edwin Díaz, José Butto, Dedniel Nuñez (no longer feeling soreness, according to the most recent reports), and the Young brothers can certainly stir one's imagination.

According to Metsmerized.com, the Mets have activated Reed Garrett and optioned Alex Young.

Starling Marte went 2-for-5 with a homer in St. Lucie, and this return looks like it's going to happen.

It's weird because their long climb out of the cellar took place pretty much as soon as he went down, but when they were at their worst, he was possibly the best guy in their lineup from day to day.

Hard to believe Starling Marte won't be back this weekend, maybe sooner if they send Martinez to the IL.

Orangel Rodroguez was hitting alright, but only got to the plate 48 times this season between Brooklyn and the Mets FCL team.

It's unfortunate he didn't get a chance to play with the Mets DSL Orange team, for poetic purposes. He is the fourth known "Orangel" to play professionally, but none have made it to the bigs. In contrast with the excellent job he did throwing out runners two seasons ago in the DSL, opposing baserunners stole 11 bases off of him in 11 tries this year.

Sub-optimal.

After yesterday's game I was hoping to check in here and see that they released the entire ML roster.

Considering how David Stearns has operated so far, there's a good chance that signing Eddie Rosario is a move made in anticipation of losing Ben Gamel when they activate Starling Marte.

You hate to activate a guy and have that damage your depth chart when you lose the guy he displaces. Stearns stays ahead of that.

[Cowtipper]

Mets released RHP Lucas Gordillo.​ Mets released RHP Wilson Esterlin.

[Edgy MD]

Mets Roster Central is all over that. We're just holding up the press release until we have information about the assumed Marte activation and (likely?) Gamel DFA today.

This is going to be a very interesting mix going forward as they split playing time among Starling Marte, Jesse Winker, Tyrone Taylor, Jeff McNeil, Brandon Nimmo, Harrison Bader, and José Iglesias.

That's seven guys in the mix to play four positions.

Bart, Jr. has been in the system since 2018, and made it briefly as far as AAA. He's had some really good stretches at times, including this season in AA, but seemingly hasn't made the adjustment from starting pitcher to reliever.

Given the chance to move him back into the Starter column, the Mets instead opted to place him in the Former Mets Minor-Leaguer column.
