Yoan Lopez: Heads to Japan
Lopez recently signed a one-year, $1.1 million contract with the Yomiuri Giants of Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball in December, Francys Romero of MLB.com reports.
Lopez had been under contract with the Mets before the team officially released him Dec. 22 and sold his rights to Yomiuri for $600,000. The 29-year-old reliever could explore a move back to North America in 2023 depending on how he fares in Japan during the upcoming season.

Yoan Lopez: Let go by Mets
Lopez was released by the Mets on Thursday.
Lopez pitched primarily with Triple-A Syracuse in 2022, working 35 innings across 29 appearances as a reliever. He chipped in a bit at the big-league level but struggled to a 5.73 ERA and 1.73 WHIP in 11 frames. He'll likely be on the lookout for a minor-league deal with the hopes of cracking a big-league bullpen to open 2023.

Mets' Yoan Lopez: Recalled but unavailable Friday
Lopez was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday but will be initially unavailable while serving a one-game suspension, Deesha Thosar of the New York Daily News reports.
Lopez was suspended for three games back at the start of May after intentionally throwing at the Phillies' Kyle Schwarber.

He'll fill a lower-leverage role starting Saturday.

Mets' Yoan Lopez: Suspended three games
Lopez was hit with a three-game suspension Monday after he was judged to have intentionally thrown at Kyle Schwarber during Sunday's game against the Phillies, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
The pitch in question came after the umpires had issued a warning, but Lopez was allowed to remain in the game. He was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse after the contest, but he'll now have to miss three games once he eventually returns. That means it's unlikely he'll be the first pitcher the Mets turn to if they need an extra arm in the bullpen.
