Elects free agency Nogosek declined his outright assignment to Triple-A Syracuse by the Mets on Tuesday and elected free agency, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Nogosek passed through waivers without being claimed after he was designated for assignment by the Mets on Friday. The right-hander is now free to sign with another club, and teams interested in organizational depth will likely show interest in his services.

Outrighted to Triple-A The Mets outrighted Nogosek to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact Nogosek passed through waivers unclaimed after being designated for assignment last Friday. He'll remain part of the organization for now with a bullpen role at Triple-A.

JUNE 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Dropped from 40-man roster Nogosek was designated for assignment by the Mets on Friday.

Impact Nogosek was dropped from the Mets' 40-man roster Friday after he posted an inflated 6.52 ERA and 1.60 WHIP with 17 strikeouts over 19.1 innings over 10 appearances with New York after being activated from the 15-day injured list May 1 following an elbow injury. He'll now either report to Triple-A Syracuse, get claimed by another team or be released outright, the first of which seems most likely. Left-hander Zach Muckenhirn was called up from Syracuse on Friday to replace Nogosek in the Mets' major-league bullpen.

Rough outing at altitude Nogosek (0-1) took the loss Sunday as the Mets were downed by the Rockies, coughing up five runs on four hits -- including two home runs -- and a walk over one inning of relief.

Impact Coors Field was working its magic Sunday as the two teams combined for 21 runs, and Nogosek took the worst of it, serving up long balls to Charlie Blackmon and Ryan McMahon in the fifth inning plus doubles to bottom-of-the-order hitters Ezequiel Tovar and Austin Wynns for good measure. Nogosek added nearly two full runs to his ERA with the poor performance, as it jumped from 4.43 to 6.33, but he's been struggling all season and has been tagged for runs in eight of his 11 appearances.

Brought back from IL The Mets reinstated Nogosek (elbow) from the 15-day injured list Monday.

Impact New York optioned right-hander Jose Butto to Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday to open up a spot on the 26-man active roster for Nogosek, who is back with the big club after a minimum-length stay on the shelf due to a left elbow bruise. Nogosek will be available for Monday's doubleheader with Atlanta after he checked out fine following rehab appearances with Syracuse and Double-A Binghamton between which he covered three total innings.

MAY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to be activated Sunday Nogosek (elbow) told reporters Friday that he is good to go, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Impact Nogosek has joined up with the Mets following a rehab assignment at Triple-A Syracuse and seems likely to be activated from the 15-day IL when first eligible Sunday. He's been sidelined since taking a comebacker off his right elbow April 15 against the Athletics.

APRIL 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Begins rehab assignment Nogosek began a rehab assignment for Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Nogosek hit the injured list on April 15 after taking a comebacker off his elbow. He doesn't appear to be set to miss much more than the minimum.

APRIL 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on 15-day IL Nogosek was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a bone bruise in his left elbow.

Impact Nogosek suffered the injury when he was struck by a line drive in the sixth inning of the Mets' win over the Athletics on Friday. It shouldn't be an overly lengthy absence for the 28-year-old reliever.

Fans five in long relief Nogosek gave up one run on three hits and a walk over 3.1 relief innings while striking out five in Sunday's loss to the Marlins.

Impact The 28-year-old righty replaced Carlos Carrasco in the fifth inning with the Mets already down 6-1, and Nogosek delivered a solid performance over 52 pitches (34 strikes), His long-relief role doesn't afford much fantasy upside, but he does have a 1.69 ERA and 6:3 K:BB through his first two appearances and 5.1 innings.

APRIL 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Likely locked into long-relief role Nogosek is a favorite for one of the open jobs in the Mets' bullpen, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 28-year-old right-hander is out of minor-league options and was effective in a long-relief role last season, working 22 innings over 12 appearances with a 2.45 ERA. It's not an assignment that would carry a lot of fantasy value, but using Nogosek as a long man would allow the Mets to keep pitchers like David Peterson and Tylor Megill stretched out as starters at Triple-A rather than working shorter stints in the majors.

FEBRUARY 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to minors The Mets optioned Nogosek to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.

Impact Nogosek didn't pitch for the Mets after returning Saturday from an oblique injury. The righty's respectable 2.79 ERA in 11 big-league appearances this season suggest he could rejoin New York's bullpen before the regular campaign concludes.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Reinstated from injured list Nogosek (oblique) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Saturday.
