Detachable Mets (Waived, DFA’d, Released) 2024

[Edgy MD]

He’s a detachable Met, and that may be most of what we need to know, as it appears to be a highly desirable quality.

[Benjamin Grimm]

You're right; he's probably quite detachable. He'll probably go to Syracuse when Alvarez returns.

Omar Narváez DFA'd , Mets get catcher Luis Torrens from MFY for cash , DiComo

whoa. That's cold from Stearns, releasing a former Brewer like that. Not that Omar didn't have it coming given his D and O this year.

Whoever the fuck is Luis Torrens

He's a stranger to me, but I did some digging, and I was able to find a childhood photo of him.

According to SNY, the Mets have granted Jiman Choi's request to be released from Triple-A Syracuse.

Geez, Syracuse area is so nice this time of year.

I realize that Torrens is Venezuelan, but it feels odd to see 13 on the back of a non-infielder.

The last Mets catcher to wear it has to be ... part-time backstop Clint Hurdle?

Rick Cerone.

Good play.

I watched the Mets in the Summer of Cerone in 1991, but somehow completely deleted him. I'm aware, of course, that he was there, but not a single concrete memory sticks.

[G-Fafif]

Narváez and Lopez are each released.

[Cowtipper]

Seems like an overreaction to release Lopez over his temper tantrum. He showed passion, which is a lot more than what Mendoza's shown so far.

[G-Fafif]

Nido DFA'd as Alvarez is activated.

Oh, bummer!

[G-Fafif]

Nido released.

[Cowtipper]

Neato!

[MFS62]

He'll catch on somewhere.

Plawecki was gone after four seasons, Recker after three and Nickeas after three...yet Nido stuck around for eight years, despite being no better than any of them (except for maybe Nickeas) offensively.

Crazy.
