Matz has no damage in forearm, MRI reveals

NEW YORK -- The Mets have avoided the worst with pitcher Steven Matz, whose MRI on Thursday revealed no structural damage in his left arm, according to multiple reports. Regardless, Matz may land on the disabled list prior to Thursday's game against the Braves. According to a source, the Mets plan to call up reliever Bobby Wahl, one of the players they acquired from the A's last month for closer Jeurys Familia.

The Mets also plan to activate third baseman Todd Frazier, who has been sidelined since July 8 due to a strained left rib cage muscle, from the disabled list.
