Rick Ankiel has elected to become a free agent.

Ankiel was designated for assignment by the Mets last week after batting just .182/.239/.364 with 25 strikeouts in 71 plate appearances. The 33-year-old former pitcher will presumably try to latch on with a new organization. Jun 13 - 9:22 AM

	2	Justin Turner D.L. Mets placed INF Justin Turner on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to June 17, with an intercostal strain. The move clears a spot for Scott Atchison's return from the disabled list. Turner will be eligible to return in early July and has a chance to be ready by then. The 28-year-old is batting .266/.307/.330 in 94 at-bats this season. Jun 18
SS	1	Ruben Tejada D.L. Ruben Tejada (quad) is fielding grounders without moving laterally and running in a pool Tejada resumed running earlier this week and is slowly ramping up other baseball activities. It's not clear when he'll begin a rehab assignment, but considering how poorly he was playing prior to the injury, he shouldn't be assured a spot on the major league roster once he's back to full health.

Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Jon Niese Sidelined Jon Niese yielded two runs in 5 2/3 innings in a loss to the Cubs on Saturday. He struck out five. Niese allowed six hits and four walks, so it wasn't pretty, but he kept his team in the ballgame. However, a two-run single by opposing pitcher Scott Feldman in the fourth inning was enough to put him on the losing side. The southpaw has allowed two earned runs or fewer in each of his last five starts and now owns a 4.15 ERA on the year. He'll face the Braves next week in Atlanta. Jun 15
	2	Matt Harvey
	3	Shaun Marcum
	4	Dillon Gee
	5	Jeremy Hefner
	6	Zack Wheeler
	7	Jenrry Mejia D.L. Jenrry Mejia (elbow) racked up six strikeouts over three innings during his first minor league rehab start with High-A St. Lucie on Friday. Mejia has been on the disabled list for the entire season with inflammation in his pitching elbow. He's likely to require a relatively lengthy rehab assignment, and shouldn't be expected to return to the Mets until early June. Should he secure a spot in the Mets rotation, he could carve out a decent amount of value in NL-only and deeper mixed leagues. May 17
	8	Johan Santana D.L. Mets transferred LHP Johan Santana from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. The move cleared a spot on the Mets' 40-man roster for Aaron Laffey. Santana (shoulder) won't pitch this season. Apr 6
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Bobby Parnell
	2	Frank Francisco D.L. Frank Francisco (elbow) has resumed throwing off a mound. Francisco has been out all season due to a flexor strain in his right elbow. The Mets still don't have a timetable for his return, but he could begin pitching in rehab games by next week. Jun 15
	3	Brandon Lyon
	4	David Aardsma
	5	LaTroy Hawkins
	6	Scott Rice
	7	Scott Atchison Sidelined Scott Atchison (groin) is likely to be placed on the disabled list. Atchison suffered the injury on Tuesday while warming up before an appearance. It was his first day back from the DL for an elbow injury. It's not clear at this point how long he'll be out. Jun 18
	8	Jeurys Familia D.L. Mets transferred RHP Jeurys Familia from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. It's just a procedural move to open a spot on the 40-man roster. Familia underwent surgery Wednesday to remove bone spurs from his right elbow and likely won't factor into the Mets' bullpen again until 2014. Jun 8
	9	Josh Edgin
	10	Carlos Torres
