LHP Antonio Bastardo's tenure with the Mets ended Monday, when he was traded to the Pirates in exchange for LHP Jonathon Niese. The Mets signed Bastardo to a two-year deal in January with the hope he wouldd become a late-inning weapon against both lefties and righties, but he struggled all season and spent the last several weeks as a mop-up man. It will be the second tour of duty in Pittsburgh for Bastardo, who went 4-1 with a 2.98 ERA and one save in 66 games for the Pirates last season. He was 0-0 with a 4.74 ERA in 41 games for the Mets this season and is 24-19 with a 3.73 ERA and 12 saves in 382 games as a big-leaguer dating back to 2009.

As a result, he's on pace to record a career low in holds -- he has just five in 40 games.

The 29-year-old has now made a scoreless appearance in nine of his last 10 chances on the mound.

Bastardo recorded his second win in as many days Sunday, allowing one hit in a scoreless inning against the Phillies.
A long homestand and extensive bullpen use forced Pittsburgh to go with Bastardo and he has responded. For the first time in a Pirates uniform, Bastardo has looked comfortable. He's given up one earned run in his last six outings, a span of 5.2 innings. The lefty still slots behind several other bullpen options, but he's beginning to pitch like he has in past seasons.
