Scooped up by Mets The Mets claimed St. John off waivers from the Cubs on Tuesday.

Impact New York cleared a spot for St. John on the 40-man roster by transferring Jacob deGrom (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL. Before he was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on May 1, St. John made one two-inning appearance out of the Cubs bullpen, striking out four while giving up three earned runs on three hits. He's expected to join the Mets' Triple-A affiliate in Syracuse.

Designated for assignment St. John was designated for assignment by the Cubs on Tuesday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact St. John was called up on Saturday but spent just one day on the active roster, giving up three runs in two innings. He was optioned on Sunday and will now exit the 40-man roster as well just two days later, clearing space for the Cubs to select Robert Gsellman's contract.

Optioned to Triple-A St. John was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Sunday, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Impact St. John was recalled by the Cubs on Saturday, and he made his first major-league appearance since 2019 during Saturday's loss to Milwaukee. He allowed three runs on three hits and no walks while striking out four in two innings, and he'll head back to the minors since the Cubs need to trim their active roster to 26 players by Monday.

Recalled by Cubs St. John was called up by the Cubs on Saturday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact The 29-year-old lefty's only previous major-league experience came back in 2019 with the Rangers, when he allowed four runs in 6.2 innings of relief. He owns a 5.14 ERA and 8:6 K:BB through seven frames for Triple-A Iowa this season, so it would be a surprise to see him in anything but a low-leverage role. Mark Leiter Jr. was optioned in a corresponding move.
