LHP Sean Gilmartin and RH reliever Erik Goeddel are on their way to New York to potentially join the the New York Mets, according to Kristie Ackert of the Daily News.
However, Mike Puma of the Post adds that while both are en route, only one of them will be activated. Goeddel will be activated if Matt Harvey does not land on the DL, while Gilmartin will be activated if Harvey remains with the team.
The Mets say that no roster move will be made before tonight’s game so stay tuned.
Gilmartin, who posted a 2.45 ERA and 2.62 FIP in 62.1 major league innings last season, pitched five scoreless innings, striking out five and walking none in two games for the Mets last week. He’s posting some solid numbers for Triple-A Las Vegas (2.48 ERA, 1.113 WHIP), which is no small feat.
It’s been a different story for Goeddel who is having a rough go of it in Las Vegas, posting a 5.65 ERA and 1.745 WHIP in 13 relief appearances.
