- Mets place Austin Warren on IL, recall Tobias Myers from Syracuse
The Mets are making a flurry of bullpen moves ahead of Wednesday night's game.
Austin Warren has officially been placed on the 15-day IL with a right forearm strain.
SNY MLB Insider Chelsea Janes confirmed reports earlier in the day that indicated this would be the case, as Warren underwent testing following back-to-back rough outings.

Warren allowed a combined nine runs on eight hits in his last 2.0 innings of work.
"Haven't felt great the past couple," he said. "That's part of the game these days, I had outings earlier in the year that I hadn't felt great but went better, I just threw a pitch last night and it didn't feel great so I told them right away."
Warren and the Mets are still awaiting results from the MRI.
In a corresponding move, righty Tobias Myers has been recalled from Triple-A Syracuse.
Myers was an extremely valuable piece for New York's staff over the first few months of the season, but like Warren, he was roughed up over his last few big-league appearances.

He's put together just two clean outings since May 14th, racking up a 10.38 ERA over that span.
When at his best, though, the 27-year-old has proven to be a versatile weapon in long relief or the late innings.
Additionally, the Mets DFA'd Matt Seelingerafter his rough debut and recalled Xzavion Curry from Triple-A.
