Brooks Raley - Could be back in minimum time Raley isn't scheduled to undergo an MRI after he was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with left elbow inflammation, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Impact The Mets believe that Raley isn't dealing with anything more than some minor swelling in his elbow and are optimistic that he'll be ready to return from the IL when first eligible in mid-May. Raley had picked up eight holds through his first 14 relief appearances with the Mets, and while he sports a 4.76 ERA over 11.1 innings, most of his underlying ratios are strong.

Denyi Reyes - On tap for start in doubleheader Reyes is scheduled to start the first game of the Mets' doubleheader with Atlanta at Citi Field on Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact The Mets are likely to treat the first game of the twin bill as more of a bullpen day, as Reyes hasn't covered more than two innings or 36 pitches in any of his six appearances between the big club and Triple-A Norfolk this season and likely won't push far past those thresholds Monday. New York could call up an additional relief arm ahead of the doubleheader to provide extra depth behind Reyes.

José Butto - Demoted back to minors The Mets optioned Butto to Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday.
Impact Due to a rainout Sunday, the Mets will conclude their series with Atlanta with a doubleheader Monday. Butto looked to be a candidate to start one of those two contests along with Tylor Megill, but unless the Mets elect to place another player on the injured list in a corresponding move, Butto won't be eligible to be recalled ahead of the twin bill. Butto's demotion comes after he pitched to a 2.79 ERA in 9.2 innings over his prior two starts with the big club, but his underlying numbers -- specifically, a 3:10 K:BB -- didn't portend strong results moving forward.

Tim Locastro - Starting up rehab assignment Locastro (back) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with Single-A St. Lucie on Sunday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact Since he's been on the 10-day injured list for just under two weeks due to back spasms, Locastro will presumably require only a few games in the minors to prove he's healthy. Whenever the Mets choose to activate him, Locastro will be deployed mostly as a pinch-runner or late-inning defensive replacement.

Tylor Megill - Mets-Braves postponed Sunday Megill and New York won't face Atlanta on Sunday after the game was postponed due to inclement weather in Queens.
Impact The two teams have now had two consecutive games postponed for weather-related reasons. New York and Atlanta will make up the postponement from Saturday as part of a split doubleheader Aug. 12, while Sunday's postponed contest will be made up as part of a straight doubleheader Monday. Expect Megill to take the hill for one of those two contests.

John Curtiss - Recalled from Triple-A Curtiss was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.
Impact Curtiss has a 4.35 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and seven strikeouts in 10.1 innings through nine big-league appearances this season. He struck out four over two scoreless innings in his lone appearance at Triple-A. Look for him to work in lower-leverage relief situations.

Brooks Raley - To IL with elbow inflammation Raley was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with left elbow inflammation.
Impact The move is retroactive to April 28. Raley logged eight holds, one win and zero saves in 14 games this season. Adam Ottavino, who was on the paternity list, was activated in a corresponding move.
