From SNY:

March 23, 9:30 p.m.
With final roster decisions looming, the Mets made a flurry of moves prior to Saturday's spring training game.
After an up-and-down spring showing, right-hander Shintaro Fujinami has been optioned to minor league camp, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza announced.
Austin Adams was also reassigned to minor league camp after he pitched to a 6.75 ERA across six spring appearances.
Righty Phil Bickford was designated for assignment to make room on the roster with the one-year deal with J.D. Martinez becoming official on Saturday morning.
Additionally, Mendoza said the team has told C Tomas Nido, INF Jose Iglesias, and 1B/DH Luke Voit that they have not cracked the big-league roster.

Two players with alliterative names traded for each other.
I like it.

J.D. Bickford.

Mets playing the Giants game. Anything to shed salary that they've got to pay at 210%.

[G-Fafif]

Michael Tonkin DFA'd to clrar a spot for Julio Teheran.

Yohan Ramirez DFA’d in favor of Cole Sulser.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

"We were coming up short in relievers whose names sound like they're cowboys, and Cole Sulser fits that need to a tee."

WOW!
I guess he has nothing left in the tank.

How does this work with his salary?

[Cowtipper]

Nunez has been waiting quite a while for this, congrats to him.

[Benjamin Grimm]

How does this work with his salary?

It seems like they may have paid him $2.5 million to pitch a couple of innings.

I would have done it for half that.

Wow , so he can collect that and sign with another team for more $$$?

[Benjamin Grimm]

No, I think what would happen is the new team would pay him the major league minimum ($750,000?) and the Mets would be on the hook for the rest.

[Edgy MD]

That would be the case if he gets released, and the Mets haven't done that — at least not yet.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Maybe he slides into Syracuse's rotation to build arm strength

Nunez has been waiting quite a while for this, congrats to him.

I'm into guys named Dedniel. He was Rule 5'ed away from the Mets a few years back but never surfaced with the Giants

[Edgy MD]

I'm into guys who get Rule V'd away, but the team keeps track of with an eye toward acquisition further down the line.

I'm hoping for this outcome as opposed to him going somewhere else

I would think the Mets asked Teheran before making the move and we're ok with the response
