Mets' Jimmy Yacabonis: Added to active roster
The Mets selected Yacabonis' contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.
Yacabonis will provide the big club with a fresh arm after the bullpen was taxed for six innings behind David Peterson on Friday. Considering Yacabonis has a 6.24 career ERA and a 9.00 ERA in nine innings in the majors this season, it's unlikely we'll see him in any important spots.

Yacabonis was sent outright to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.
Yacabonis was removed from the 40-man roster May 30, and the right-hander has been dealing with a strained left quad since May 9. He'll report back to Triple-A and provide some pitching depth in the minors once he's healthy, but he won't be able to help the Mets without being placed back on the 40-man roster.

Mets' Jimmy Yacabonis: Snags win in relief
Yacabonis (2-0) picked up the win Wednesday, allowing one run on two hits and a walk over 2.2 innings of relief. He struck out one.
The journeyman right-hander entered the game to begin the fourth inning following Max Scherzer's ejection, putting him in position for the win when the Mets took the lead for good in the fifth. Yacabonis has two wins in two appearances since joining the Mets' bullpen over the weekend to fill a long-relief role, but with the team likely scrambling to patch together its staff with Scherzer facing a 10-game suspension for use of a foreign substance, Yacabonis could be cycled out for a fresh bullpen arm at some point over the next couple weeks.

Mets' Jimmy Yacabonis: Moves to minor-league camp
Yacabonis was reassigned to minor-league camp by the Mets on Sunday.
Yacabonis signed with the Mets as a non-roster invitee in December and pitched well during spring training with two runs allowed and an 8:2 K:BB across seven innings, but he was never a likely bet to make the Opening Day roster. The 31-year-old has a 6.03 ERA in 71 big-league appearances and is unlikely to serve as much more than organizational depth in 2023.

Rays' Jimmy Yacabonis: Gets chance as opener
The Rays will deploy Yacabonis as an opener in front of bulk reliever Ryan Yarbrough in Tuesday's game against the Brewers, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
The arrangement could deter the Brewers from fielding a righty-heavy lineup Tuesday, as the right-handed Yacabonis will likely work an inning or two before giving way to the left-handed Yarbrough. The Rays will be hoping for better results in Yacabonis' second appearance with the team, as he was lit up for three earned runs while recording just two outs in his debut Saturday in Detroit after he had recently been scooped up off waivers from the Marlins.
