According to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, New York Mets lefty reliever Jerry Blevins and infielder Wilmer Flores have cleared revocable waivers.
The Mets can now trade Blevins or Flores to any team, and Rosenthal believes the Mets would entertain trading both.
Blevins, pending free agent, has a 3.86 ERA and 1.29 WHIP in 35 innings for the Mets this year. The veteran has been very good in the second half holding opponents to a .447 OPS.
Flores, 27, becomes a free agent after the 2019 season. He’s hitting .274/.327/.435 with 24 doubles, 11 homers and 48 RBI this season in 394 plate appearances. He has set a career-high with 7.1 BB% and career-low 8.9 K%.
The Mets recently traded veteran Jose Bautista to the Philadelphia Phillies for a player to be named later or cash.
