New York Mets send Eduardo Nunez to IL, DFA Hunter Strickland

The New York Mets have the same issues year after year. Hamstring injuries and poor performance from the bullpen seem to be boxes on a Mets season checklist. The Mets checked them off early in 2020 with Hunter Strickland and Eduardo Nunez, and as a result, they’ve both been removed from the active roster.

Mets roster moves:

* Eduardo Núñez to the IL with a left knee contusion

* Brian Dozier up from the alternate training site

* Daniel Zamora up from the alternate training site

* Hunter Strickland has been DFAed

Nunez didn’t play much before his hamstring injury.
