Cahill was let go by the Mets on Saturday. Cahill signed a minor-league deal in May with hopes of potentially providing depth to an injured Mets rotation. After putting up a disappointing 6.52 ERA and 2.30 WHIP over 19.1 innings with Triple-A Syracuse, the organization deemed Cahill expendable. If another team decides to afford the veteran an opportunity, it will almost certainly be in the form of another minor-league deal.

Cahill (foot) agreed to a minor-league contract with the Mets on Thursday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. The 34-year-old missed the final two months of last season while recovering from several fractures and torn ligaments in his right foot, and he was unable to land with a team during the offseason. Prior to the injury, Cahill appeared in nine games for the Pirates in 2021 and had a 6.57 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 32:14 K:BB over 37 innings. He could eventually provide rotation depth with Jacob deGrom (shoulder), Max Scherzer (oblique) and Tylor Megill (biceps) all currently sidelined with injuries.
