The New York Mets announced Sunday that struggling catcher Travis d'Arnaud has been designated for assignment, while fellow catcher Tomas Nido has been recalled from Triple-A.
The 30-year-old d'Arnaud has had a rough 2019 campaign, hitting just .087 with two RBI in 10 games. His on-base percentage isn't much better (.160), while his OPS sits at .247.
To put those numbers in perspective, Mets pitcher Jacob deGrom is hitting .111 with a homer and an RBI this season. His four total bases are more than the two d'Arnaud has managed.
