The New York Mets recalled Buddy Baumann and Jacob Rhame from Triple-A before the start of their two-game series with the Toronto Blue Jays at Citi Field. To make room for the relievers, the Mets optioned Corey Oswalt back to Las Vegas and placed left-hander Jerry Blevins on the paternity leave list. Jerry Blevins and his wife are expecting the birth of their second child.
Baumann was recently recalled when the club placed Hansel Robles on the disabled list, but he was sent back down to Triple-A before making an appearance.
