It seems reinforcements for the Mets’ rotation are on the horizon. Right-hander Kodai Senga, who’s missed the entire season thus far with a shoulder injury, is slated to throw 40 pitches in the first start of a minor league rehab assignment, per Will Sammon of The Athletic. New York will also recall top prospect Christian Scott from Triple-A Syracuse to start Wednesday’s game, manager Carlos Mendoza confirmed to reporters (X link via Anthony DiComo of MLB.com).

The Mets announced that they have selected the contract of right-hander Eric Orze from Triple-A Syracuse. Fellow righty Ty Adco*ck has been optioned to Triple-A in the corresponding move.
Adco*ck was one of three relievers who saw action in the Mets’ 14-2 loss to the Pirates last night, and Adco*ck had a particularly rough night in getting charged with six runs over 1 2/3 innings of work. Today’s transaction brings a fresh arm into New York’s bullpen, and it also puts

Right-hander Matt Festa has elected free agency, per Will Sammon of The Athletic on X. That indicates he cleared waivers after being designated for assignment earlier this week. He had the right to elect free agency by virtue of having a previous career outright.
Festa, 31, signed a minor league deal with the Mets in May. He tossed 15 1/3 innings for Triple-A Syracuse with a nice 1.76 earned run average. He struck out 32.2% of batters faced, limited walks to a 5.1% rate and got grounders on 45.7

The Mets have released outfielder Trayce Thompson, according to his transaction log on MLB.com. He signed a minor league contract with the club this past offseason.
A second-round pick in the 2009 draft, Thompson made his MLB debut with the White Sox in 2015. He has since spent time with the Dodgers, Yankees, Athletics, Guardians, Diamondbacks, Cubs, Padres, Tigers, and Mets organizations, including two separate stints with the Dodgers and three with the White Sox.

The Rays made a somewhat unconventional trade Wednesday, shipping right-hander Aaron Civale to the Brewers in exchange for infield prospect Gregory Barrios. Tampa Bay had the luxury of moving a current member of its rotation despite the fact that the team is still in the Wild Card race and still harbors postseason aspirations. That's due primarily to the organizational depth in the rotation, which was thin earlier in the season but is deepening as the year wears on and as injured arms like Shane

With four weeks until the trade deadline, a lot remains uncertain. Most teams still find themselves in a muddled middle and will wait until the last few days to determine how aggressively they'll buy or sell. That's especially true in the National League, where nine teams are within six games of one another as they fight for the final two Wild Card spots. The Mets, Giants and Cubs are among those borderline contenders. It wouldn't be especially surprising to see any of them wind up as sellers de

A month ago, the Mets looked like also-rans in the National League playoff picture. They followed up a 9-19 showing in the month of May with a pair of losses to begin June, but the Mets have since turned things around in dramatic fashion, going 16-6 over their past 22 games. Manager Carlos Mendoza’s squad is still a game under .500 and has minimal hope of catching the best-in-MLB Phillies (55-29), who lead the NL East by a margin of eight games over the Braves and 13.5 games ahead of New Y
