Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Returns to Mets on MiLB pact
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (elbow) re-signed Monday with the Mets on a minor-league contract.
Reid-Foley won't be available for the start of the 2023 season while he continues his recovery from the Tommy John procedure he underwent last May, but his decision to re-sign with the Mets will at least allow him to conduct his rehab in a team setting. Before going under the knife, Reid-Foley made seven relief appearances for the Mets last season, giving up six earned runs on seven hits and seven walks over 10 innings.

Rotowire
The Mets declined to tender Reid-Foley (elbow) a contract for 2023, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Reid-Foley was one of two Mets to be non-tendered, with Dominic Smith being the other.

He underwent Tommy John surgery last May.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Moves to 60-day IL
Rotowire
Reid-Foley (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Sunday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
The 26-year-old landed on the 10-day IL with a partially torn UCL last week, and it's not a major surprise to see him shift to the 60-day IL. It remains unclear whether Reid-Foley will require Tommy John surgery, but he's in store for a lengthy absence regardless.

Rotowire
Reid-Foley was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a partially torn UCL in his right elbow, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Reid-Foley exited Saturday's loss to the Phillies with right elbow discomfort, and he'll now be sidelined for the foreseeable future. Tommy John surgery isn't a certainty but is being considered for the 26-year-old, and he can be considered out indefinitely even if he avoids the procedure.

Reid-Foley left Saturday's loss to the Phillies with right elbow discomfort, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Exits with leg cramps
Rotowire
Reid-Foley exited Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks with leg cramps, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
Reid-Foley entered the game in the third inning and threw 2.2 scoreless frames while walking two and striking out one. Assuming initial reports are correct regarding the severity of the injury, he should not be in line for a long-term absence. Reid-Foley has pitched exclusively out of the bullpen this season, maintaining a 4.91 ERA across 7.1 innings.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Secures Opening Day bullpen spot
Rotowire
Reid-Foley has made the Mets' Opening Day roster, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
Reid-Foley finished the 2021 campaign in the minors, but he posted a 2.70 ERA and 1.65 WHIP in 6.2 innings across six appearances (one start) this spring. The right-hander will likely serve as a middle reliever for the Mets in 2022.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Back from IL
Rotowire
The Mets activated Reid-Foley (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Sunday, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
Right elbow inflammation had sidelined Reid-Foley since the end of June, but he's back for the final week of the regular season. He was unremarkable earlier this season, posting a 5.23 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in 20.2 innings of relief, so he's unlikely to see much high-leverage work going forward.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Rehabbing at Triple-A
Rotowire
Reid-Foley has made eight rehab appearances in the minors since Aug. 29, covering eight innings and striking out 13 while allowing three runs on three hits and five walks.
Reid-Foley appears to have made a full recovery from right elbow inflammation, which resulted in him being placed on the injured list July 4. Before he was shut down with the injury, Reid-Foley had turned in a 5.23 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in 20.2 innings out of the bullpen while working mostly in a mop-up role, so the Mets likely aren't rushing to add him back to the 28-man active roster.

Rotowire
Reid-Foley (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Friday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Out with elbow inflammation
Rotowire
Reid-Foley was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday with right elbow inflammation. The move is retroactive to July 1.
The right-hander surrendered five runs (three earned) over two-thirds of an inning during his last appearance Wednesday, and the elbow issue could explain some of his struggles. Reid-Foley could officially be activated just ahead of the All-Star break, but he's more likely to return sometime following the midseason festivities since he's dealing with an arm injury.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Blown up in long relief
Rotowire
Reid-Foley retired just one of the seven batters he faced and allowed five runs (four earned) on four hits and a walk in Wednesday's 20-2 loss to Atlanta.
Reid-Foley was one of four Mets pitchers charged with at least three earned runs as a previously slumping Atlanta offense sent 50 batters to the plate on the night. The right-hander owns a strong 28.3 percent strikeout rate over his 12 relief appearances for the Mets, but his ERA sits at a bloated 5.66 thanks to two outings in which he's given up a total of 10 runs (nine earned).

Rotowire
Reid-Foley was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
The 25-year-old has been in the minors since the end of May but will rejoin the Mets ahead of Monday's series opener against the Cubs.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Sent back to minors
Rotowire
The Mets optioned Reid-Foley to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.
He was sent out to clear a spot in the bullpen for Seth Lugo (elbow), who was one of three Mets reinstated from the injured list. Reid-Foley has been electric in his six appearances out of the New York bullpen this season, posting a 1.98 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 20:4 K:BB in 13.2 innings. He did issue three of those walks his last time out Saturday against the Braves, however, and that poor showing may have had a hand in the Mets' decision to option him.

Mets' Sean Reid-Foley: Lights out in long relief
Rotowire
Reid-Foley picked up his first win of the season after tossing three perfect innings of long relief in Monday's 3-1 victory over Atlanta. He struck out five in the 43-pitch appearance.
With Taijuan Walker (side) getting removed from his start after three innings, Reid-Foley stepped in and continued to silence the Atlanta bats. He departed with the game knotted at 0-0, but the right-hander ended up getting credit for the win when the Mets broke the tie with James McCann's RBI double in the top of the seventh. The statuses of both Walker and Jacob deGrom (side) are in question for this weekend's series with the Marlins, so Reid-Foley could be the next man up for a spot start if either injured pitcher is unable to make his next turn.
