Edwards went 2-for-4 with a steal and two runs scored in Thursday's 4-1 win over Minnesota.

Edwards logged his 15th steal of the season in the third inning before being brought home on a Jesus Sanchez single. Edwards is on a six-game hitting streak and has reached base safely in 11 consecutive games, going 13-for-44 (.295) with three steals, three doubles and four RBI over the latter span.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Thursday that Senga (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment either Saturday or Sunday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Senga could need just one rehab start before coming off the 15-day injured list and joining the Mets rotation. The club is hopeful that Sean Manaea (elbow/oblique) can make his season debut July 13, which likely sets Senga to rejoin the rotation July 12 in Kansas City if all goes well in his rehab outing. Senga has been sidelined since mid-June with a right hamstring strain.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Thursday that Manaea (elbow/oblique) will make one more rehab start Tuesday, Manny Gomez of NJ.com reports.

If all goes well Tuesday, the Mets will likely bring Manaea back from the 60-day injured list to make his season debut July 13 against the Royals in the final game of the first half. The left-hander went three innings and threw 60 pitches Wednesday with Double-A Binghamton in his most recent outing. Manaea initially went on the injured list due to a right oblique strain, but more recently he's dealt with a loose body in his pitching elbow.

Henriquez earned the save in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Twins, striking out one batter in a perfect ninth inning.

Henriquez was brought in to protect the Marlins' three-run lead, and he needed 15 pitches (11 strikes) to get the job done. He has logged a save in each of his last three outings and appears to have taken the Marlins' closing gig from Calvin Faucher, who registered a hold after tossing a scoreless eighth. Henriquez has yielded just one earned run over his last 10 outings, which has brought him down to a 2.79 ERA and 1.19 WHIP across 42 innings with 58 strikeouts this season.

The Mets selected Garcia's contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.

Garcia will come up from Syracuse to provide the Mets with some additional bullpen depth following the placement of Paul Blackburn (shoulder) and Dedniel Nunez (elbow) on the injured list and Blade Tidwell's demotion to Triple-A. Garcia, 31, hasn't appeared in a major-league game since 2023 and will likely be used in low-leverage situations.

Naylor is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Giants.

Naylor returned to action Wednesday after missing the previous four contests with a neck injury. There's no indication he suffered a setback, but with lefty Robbie Ray on the bump for the Giants, it makes sense to give the left-handed-hitting Naylor a little more rest. Tim Tawa will handle first base and bat eighth.

The Mets recalled Hagenman from Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.

Hagenman has struggled to begin the season in Triple-A, accumulating a 6.21 ERA and 1.31 WHIP over 42 innings. However, the Mets are dealing with a shortage of rotation arms following Paul Blackburn's (shoulder) move to the IL and Blade Tidwell's move back to Syracuse, so Hagenman could be in the mix to make a start or two for New York leading up to the All-Star break. He could also just be up with the big club as a long-relief option.

The Mets recalled Warren from Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.

The Mets returned Warren to Syracuse earlier Thursday after he worked as the 27th man for Wednesday's twin bill, but he'll end up sticking around with the big club a bit longer to help make up for the loss of Paul Blackburn (shoulder), Dedniel Nunez (elbow) and Blade Tidwell. Warren owns a 4.18 ERA and 1.28 WHIP through 32.1 innings in Triple-A but remains unscored upon through 3.1 frames with the Mets this year.

The Mets optioned Tidwell to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.

Tidwell picked up his first career win in the big leagues Wednesday against the Brewers, but not before giving up three runs over 4.1 innings. The 24-year-old now owns a 9.00 ERA and 2.20 WHIP through 15 frames in the majors and will head back to Syracuse in order to right the ship.

The Nationals optioned Loutos to Triple-A Rochester on Thursday.

Loutos allowed eight runs (six earned) over 4.1 innings during his six appearances with the Nationals, although most of that damage came in one disastrous outing versus the Dodgers. He's clearing out to make room on the active roster for Andrew Chafin (hamstring), who was activated from the injured list.
