Thu Feb 112:40Robert Gsellman Signs Minors Deal With Nationals
Free-agent right-hander Robert Gsellman signed a minor-league deal with the Washington Nationals on Wednesday. He'd make $900,000 if he's in the majors in 2024. Gsellman spent last year pitching in Japan, where he posted a 4.32 ERA and 1.52 WHIP in 139 2/3 innings pitched. In 2022 with the Chicago Cubs, he only pitched 15 1/3 innings at the major-league level and allowed 10 runs (eight earned) on 17 hits (two homers) while walking three and striking out nine. In parts of seven major-league seasons, Gsellman has a 4.60 ERA (4.30 FIP) and 1.39 WHIP with 15 saves, 126 walks and 289 strikeouts in 366 innings over 184 appearances (34 starts) for the Cubs and New York Mets. The 30-year-old will most likely begin the 2024 campaign at Triple-A Rochester and give Washington some minor-league relief depth to open the year.

Thu Mar 17 202214:36Cubs Agree With Robert Gsellman
The Chicago Cubs are agreeing to an undisclosed deal with free-agent right-hander Robert Gsellman on Thursday, according to a source. The Cubs have been busy on Thursday, also adding veteran infielder Jonathan Villar and left-handed pitcher Daniel Norris to major league deals. Gsellman spent his first six MLB seasons with the New York Mets, posting a 4.59 ERA and 1.40 WHIP with 14 saves in 176 appearances (34 starts) covering 350 2/3 innings. He had a 3.77 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with 17 strikeouts and seven walks in 28 2/3 innings (one start) while being limited with a lat injury. The 28-year-old is likely to serve in a middle-relief role if he's on the Cubs major league roster, making it highly unlikely he'll be fantasy relevant.

Tue Nov 30 202122:13Mets Non-Tender Robert Gsellman
The New York Mets non-tendered reliever Robert Gsellman, right-hander Stephen Nogosek and outfielder Mark Payton on Tuesday, making them all free-agents. The 28-year-old Gsellman missed most of the 2021 season while rehabbing a torn right lat muscle. He had a 3.77 ERA in 28 2/3 innings and was more effective than he was in 2020, but he only struck out 17 batters and had an FIP of 4.29. Gsellman made $1.3 million last season and would have been due a modest raise through the arbitration process. The 13th-round pick in 2016 should be able to land another job in a bullpen with his mid-90s heater with some starting experience.

Sat Oct 2 202120:26Robert Gsellman Activated On Saturday
The New York Mets activated relief pitcher Robert Gsellman (lat) from the 60-day injured list on Saturday. Starting pitcher Tylor Megill was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Gsellman should get at least one appearance out of the bullpen this weekend. He was sidelined for over three months with a right lat strain. The 28-year-old has appeared in 15 games this year and he has a 3.71 ERA and a 1.20 WHIP. He has been much more effective on the mound this year than last year, when he had an ugly 9.64 ERA and 2.14 WHIP.

Wed Jun 23 202123:59Banged-up Mets get Conforto back, good news on Stroman
NEW YORK (AP) — Marcus Stroman is optimistic he can make his next scheduled start for the New York Mets after an MRI showed no damage to his sore left hip. That was good news for the depleted Mets, who reinstated right fielder Michael Conforto from the injured list Wednesday — one of eight roster moves the banged-up NL East leaders made before their series finale against Atlanta. Conforto had been sidelined since straining his right hamstring on May 16. He was ready to return Tuesday but wasn't activated after Triple-A Syracuse’s game was postponed to allow for more COVID-19 testing and contact tracing within the organization. Conforto spent last weekend on a rehab assignment with Syracuse, so the Mets said they decided not to reinstate him Tuesday “out of an abundance of caution.” “It was definitely a rollercoaster,” Conforto said. “Super excited yesterday. Fortunately, everything was fine.” The outfielder said Wednesday he tested negative three times and was feeling good. He batted third... [More]

Mon Jun 21 202115:19Mets' deGrom to start, McNeil activated from IL vs Braves
NEW YORK (AP) — Mets ace Jacob deGrom has been cleared to start the opener of New York's doubleheader Monday against the Atlanta Braves after dealing with right shoulder soreness, and infielder Jeff McNeil has also been activated from the injured list. DeGrom was pulled after three innings Wednesday against the Chicago Cubs with the discomfort in his right shoulder. It was the second straight outing the right-hander exited with an arm issue — he was lifted from a game June 11 against San Diego with flexor tendinitis in his right arm. An MRI showed no damage to deGrom's shoulder. DeGrom threw a bullpen Saturday — his 33rd birthday — and felt good, setting up the two-time NL Cy Young Award winner to pitch on his normal four days of rest. DeGrom's 0.54 ERA is the best ever by a pitcher through 11 starts. DeGrom has said he thinks the shoulder injury may have occurred while hitting, and manager Luis Rojas said Monday the team wants deGrom to adjust his preparation if he's going to continue... [More]

NEW YORK (AP) — Gio Urshela stayed in the game despite a shard of a broken bat hitting his right eye in the second inning and hit a go-ahead homer eighth as the New York Yankees rallied from a three-run deficit in a 7-5 victory Saturday that stopped the Oakland Athletics’ seven-game winning streak.

Sat Jan 30 202114:33Lefty Aaron Loup finalizes $3M, 1-year deal with Mets
NEW YORK (AP) — Left-hander Aaron Loup finalized a $3 million, one-year contract with the New York Mets on Saturday. Loup can earn $250,000 in performance bonuses for games pitched: $50,000 each of 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60. The 33-year-old was 3-2 with a 2.52 ERA in 25 innings over 24 games for AL champion Tampa Bay last season, allowing 17 hits while striking out 22 and walking four. Once considered a lefty specialist, he held right-handed batters to a .192 average with three home runs in 58 plate appearances and left-handed batters to a .212 average with no home runs in 38 plate appearances. Loup did not allow a run in eight of nine postseason appearances. Leading 5-4 in the seventh inning of World Series Game 4, he gave up a single to Corey Seager and a double to Justin Turner, then struck out Max Muncy. Joc Pederson hit a two-run single off Nick Anderson with two outs, but the Rays rallied in the ninth inning to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 8-7, tying the Series at two games apiece. He... [More]

NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Mets agreed to one-year contracts with eight players Friday to avoid salary arbitration, including shortstop Francisco Lindor, outfielder Michael Conforto and first baseman-outfielder Dominic Smith. Lindor will earn $22.3 million and Conforto gets $12.25 million in their final years before potentially becoming free agents. Smith agreed to a $2.55 million deal in his first year eligible for arbitration.

Lindor’s is the fourth-biggest one-year contract for an arbitration-eligible player, trailing Mookie Betts ($27 million with Boston last year), Nolan Arenado ($26 million with Colorado in 2019) and Josh Donaldson ($23 million with Toronto in 2018).

He earned $214,380 prorated from his $578,826 salary. Smith’s natural position is first base, creating a bit of a potential logjam with Mets slugger Pete Alonso.

If the National League adopts the designated hitter again, problem solved. If not, Smith could see plenty of playing time in left field, where his shortcomings and inexperience are evident. Even team president Sandy Alderson acknowledged that wouldn’t be ideal. Eight Mets remained eligible to exchange proposed arbitration salaries with the team Friday, including new shortstop Francisco Lindor. Others eligible were outfielder Michael Conforto and Brandon Nimmo, closer Edwin Díaz, right-handers Miguel Castro, Robert Gsellman and Seth Lugo, and third baseman-outfielder J.D. Davis. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports
