After the Mets lost their first closer, Edwin Diaz, to injury during the spring, they lost his replacement, David Robertson, to a trade Thursday.
With Robertson now trying to make the postseason in Miami, manager Buck Showalter said the Mets won’t rush back Diaz, who is rehabbing from the torn right patellar tendon he suffered while celebrating a victory during the World Baseball Classic.
David Robertson was traded from the Mets to the Miami Marlins on Thursday night for a pair of prospects.Showalter added that Diaz is “beating all the benchmarks” in his recovery and didn’t rule out a 2023 return. To replace Robertson on the roster, the Mets recalled right-hander Reed Garrett from Triple-A Syracuse.
Francisco Lindor followed up his first multi-hit game in three weeks with back-to-back hitless games as his streaky season at the plate continues.
