  The Mets acquired Alvarez from the Red Sox on Sunday and selected his contract ahead of Monday's series opener in Toronto. With Jeff McNeil (wrist) landing on the injured list over the weekend, Alvarez will step into the utility role off the New York bench that was vacated by Jose Iglesias, who is now expected to fill in for McNeil as the Mets' everyday second baseman the rest of the way. A 34-year-old switch hitter, Alvarez last saw big-league action in 2022 with the Dodgers and owned a .247/.348/.463 slash line with 18 home runs and 18 stolen bases in 114 games for Triple-A Worcester this season before he was dealt to the Mets.

  The Brewers released Alvarez on Thursday. Due to a congested roster at Triple-A Nashville, Alvarez was pushed off the squad despite posting a .283/.397/.473 slash line through 257 plate appearances. His impressive stats should be enough to get him a minor-league deal from another organization, though his lackluster MLB history marks him purely as organizational depth.
