Reid-Foley cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Syracuse.
The Mets placed Reid-Foley on waivers Tuesday in an effort to create space on their 40-man roster, and he'll officially stick with the organization after the other 29 clubs passed on the opportunity to claim him. The 29-year-old righty posted a 1.66 ERA and 1.25 WHIP across 21.2 innings last year before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury in June. A similar start in Triple-A could earn him a spot back in New York's bullpen.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Placed on waivers
Rotowire
The Mets placed Reid-Foley on outright waivers Tuesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Reid-Foley got off to a promising start last year, posting a 1.66 ERA and 1.25 WHIP over 21.2 innings, but his season was cut short in late June due to a shoulder injury. The Mets will now look to create space on their 40-man roster by outrighting him to Triple-A Syracuse. The waivers are irrevocable, however, so if one of the other 29 clubs puts in a claim on the 29-year-old righty, he will no longer be a Met.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Makes spring debut
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (shoulder) made his Grapefruit League debut in Saturday's 10-1 win over the Rays, retiring two of the four batters he faced while giving up one hit and one walk.
Reid-Foley had been eased into the Mets' Grapefruit League pitching schedule after he finished the past season on the injured list due to a right shoulder impingement, but now that he's made his spring debut, he looks to be in good shape to make the club's Opening Day roster. The right-hander turned in a 1.66 WHIP and 1.25 WHIP in 21.2 innings out of the New York bullpen last season before being shut down for good in late June.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Expected to make Opening Day roster
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (shoulder) is out of minor-league options, making him a favorite to win a spot at the back of the Mets' bullpen if he proves in spring training that he's healthy, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
The 29-year-old right-hander is being brought along carefully in camp from a right shoulder impingement that ended his 2024 campaign early. Reid-Foley was effective in the Mets' bullpen last season when he was on the mound however, posting a 1.66 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 25:14 K:BB over 21.2 innings. If he sees Grapefruit League action soon, he should still have time to get ready for Opening Day.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Gets contract from Mets
Rotowire
Reid-Foley signed a one-year deal with the Mets on Friday to avoid arbitration, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Reid-Foley spent two separate stints on the Mets' injured list due to a right shoulder impingement, and he was officially shut down in late August after suffering a setback during his rehab assignment. When he was healthy, Reid-Foley proved to an effective relief option for the Mets as he posted a 1.66 ERA and 1.25 WHIP over 21.2 innings in 23 major-league outings.

Rotowire

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Likely out for season
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (shoulder) is unlikely to rejoin the Mets before the end of the season, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
The right-hander had his rehab assignment paused a couple weeks ago, and he hasn't resumed throwing since. Reid-Foley could eventually be moved to the 60-day IL if the Mets need to open up a spot on the 40-man roster down the stretch. Reid-Foley has thrown only 21.2 innings in the majors this season between various arm issues, posting a 1.66 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 25:14 K:BB while picking up a win and four holds in 23 appearances.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Rehab assignment paused
Rotowire
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Thursday that Reid-Foley's rehab assignment has been paused as he works on strengthening his right shoulder, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
Reid-Foley's shoulder has been deemed structurally sound, and the Mets have no plans to send him in for any testing. However, he has been tagged for seven runs and has walked eight over 4.2 rehab innings, so the Mets want him to build up some arm strength before he's cleared to pitch in games again. Reid-Foley has been out since late June due a shoulder impingement, and he now seems unlikely to return before September.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Beginning assignment Thursday
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with High-A Brooklyn on Thursday, Pat Ragazzo of SI.com reports.
Reid-Foley said Tuesday that he's feeling good after facing hitters for the first time Monday, so the Mets will now look to get him in a few games in the minor leagues. It's unclear how long the 28-year-old right-hander may remain on a rehab assignment, but a return to New York before the end of July hasn't yet been ruled out.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Set to face hitters Monday
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (shoulder) is expected to begin facing hitters Monday in live batting practice, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
Reid-Foley is poised to advance to the next phase of his rehab program for a right shoulder impingement after he tossed multiple bullpen sessions at the Mets' facility in Port St. Lucie, Fla. over the All-Star break. If he responds well to pitching in live BP, Reid-Foley could be cleared to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment toward the end of next week.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Set to throw bullpen
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (shoulder) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Saturday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Saturday's activities will mark Reid-Foley's first time throwing off a mound since being placed on the injured list June 22 with a right shoulder impingement. While the 28-year-old may not be ready to bolster the Mets' bullpen immediately after the All-Star break, a July return isn't out of the picture. In 21.2 innings, Reid-Foley has posted a 1.66 ERA with 25 strikeouts.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Not yet throwing
Rotowire
Manager Carlos Mendoza said Tuesday that Reid-Foley (shoulder) has yet to begin a throwing program, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Reid-Foley has been on the injured list since June 22 due to a right shoulder impingement -- the same injury that forced him to miss nearly a month to begin the season. Mendoza noted that it's possible the right-hander begins throwing Wednesday, but even if he does, it's unlikely he makes it back into the Mets' bullpen before the All-Star break.

The Mets activated Reid-Foley (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Monday.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Back in action in Grapefruit League
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (arm) failed to record an out and was charged with two earned runs on two hits and one walk during his relief appearance Sunday in the Mets' 5-1 Grapefruit League loss to the Marlins.
Though Reid-Foley spotted just 13 of his 23 pitches for strikes and was unable to retire any of the three batters he faced, the Mets were likely just happy to have him back in action after he had battled arm fatigue earlier this month. The two hits and two runs were the first of either that Reid-Foley had given up in his four innings this spring, and he's also held batters to a .143 average overall while striking out seven. Reid-Foley still appears in good shape to win a spot in the Mets' Opening Day bullpen.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Pitches in minor-league game
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (arm) pitched in a minor-league spring training game Thursday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Reid-Foley has missed some time this spring due to arm fatigue, but he threw a bullpen session Tuesday and returned to game action Thursday, striking out multiple batters. The Mets will likely try to get Reid-Foley into one of their final Grapefruit League games, and the 28-year-old righty should be able to begin the season in New York's bullpen.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Coming back from arm fatigue
Rotowire
Reid-Foley has been dealing with arm fatigue but threw a bullpen session Tuesday and is expected to pitch in a game later this week, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
The right-hander finished last season on the injured list with a lat strain, and he'd recently been battling arm fatigue after he entered camp healthy. Reid-Foley is expected to be ready in time for Opening Day, and he should fill a low-leverage role out of the bullpen for the Mets.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Ready to pitch in spring training
Rotowire
Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns implied Monday that Reid-Foley (lat) is fully healthy ahead of spring training, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Stearns noted that lefty David Peterson (hip), infielder Ronny Mauricio (knee) and right-hander Kyle Crick (calf) are the only players who will be held out of drills to begin camp, which suggests that Reid-Foley won't face any restrictions after he landed on the 15-day injured list in September with a right lat strain. Before sustaining the injury, Reid-Foley -- who had missed most of the 2022 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery -- was effective over a small sample of 7.2 innings in the big-league bullpen, as he allowed just three earned runs on four hits and six walks while striking out 16. He projects to open the upcoming season in a middle-innings role.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Getting imaging on shoulder
Rotowire
Reid-Foley is being evaluated Tuesday for a possible shoulder strain, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Reid-Foley worked a scoreless inning of relief Monday against the Diamondbacks, but his shoulder was barking afterward and he has been sent for imaging scans. If it is indeed a shoulder strain, the 28-year-old right-hander will likely be shut down for the remainder of the 2023 campaign.
