41-year-old Benito Santiago, who last played in the majors in May 2005, intends to attempt a comeback next season.

Santiago signed with the Mets after being released by the Pirates in May 2005, but he didn't get called up and chose to head home in July. He announced his intentions to play in 2006 about a year ago this time, but he didn't follow through. He's currently hitting .250 through 14 games in the Puerto Rican League. "I think I can help anybody," he said. "I'm playing like I was five or six years ago. And if someone comes to see me in Puerto Rico, they'll see it, too." Beggars can't be choosers, but it sounds like Santiago would like to join the Phillies. Thu, Nov 30, 2006 02:18:00 PM

1B	1	T.J. Rivera 10-Day DL Mets placed INF T.J. Rivera on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to July 27, with a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. Rivera's elbow has been giving him trouble for a while now and an MRI revealed the bad news. He's been given a platelet-rich plasma injection, so it sounds like Rivera will attempt to rest and rehab the injury for now in hopes of avoiding Tommy John surgery. Jul 28

	4	David Wright 60-Day DL David Wright (shoulder) is at least 3-5 weeks away from resuming baseball activities. Wright had a checkup recently and remains limited to physical therapy. "It's going to be a while," Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said. The club hasn't ruled him out yet, but Wright is almost surely not going to play this season. Jun 30
LF	1	Yoenis Cespedes
CF	1	Michael Conforto
	2	Juan Lagares 10-Day DL Juan Lagares had surgery Monday to repair a fractured left thumb. The Mets say that the operation was a success and that he'll have the stitches removed in a couple weeks. They didn't release a timetable for Lagares' return, but it's obviously going to be a while. Jun 19

Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Noah Syndergaard 60-Day DL Noah Syndergaard (lat) will begin a throwing program Monday. Syndergaard broke the news himself via his Twitter account. The Mets' ace has been out since the end of April with a partial tear of his right lat muscle. The Mets are poised to be sellers and should be more focused on 2018 at this point, so they figure to take things slow with him. Still, there's a decent chance he'll be back down the stretch if he can avoid setbacks. Jul 17
	2	Jacob deGrom
	3	Matt Harvey 10-Day DL Matt Harvey (shoulder) has resumed a throwing program. Harvey has been working on rebuilding strength in his right shoulder after it was discovered that the muscles behind the shoulder had atrophied following last year's thoracic outlet surgery. Monday's flat-ground throwing session was the first step in what will be a multi-week rehab process. He would be back until sometime in August. Jul 17
	4	Steven Matz
	5	Zack Wheeler 10-Day DL Mets placed RHP Zack Wheeler on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to July 23, with a stress reaction in his right arm. It doesn't sound good given Wheeler's arm injury history, but the good news is he received a CT scan and was told his elbow and shoulder are fine. It's unclear at this point how long the right-hander will be sidelined, but the out-of-contention Mets certainly figure to proceed cautiously. Tyler Pill has replaced Wheeler on the roster and could get some starts. Jul 24
	6	Robert Gsellman 10-Day DL Robert Gsellman (hamstring) allowed three hits, one walk and one run over 2/3 of an inning Thursday in a rehab start for Double-A Binghamton. It was not a good outing for Gsellman, who was lifted after throwing just 26 pitches. Obviously he'll need at least a couple more appearances before he's ready to rejoin the Mets' rotation. A hamstring strain has sidelined the right-hander since late June. Jul 27

R	1	A.J. Ramos
	2	Jeurys Familia 60-Day DL Jeurys Familia (shoulder) began a throwing program Thursday at the Mets' spring training complex in Port St. Lucie, Florida. Familia underwent surgery in mid-May for an arterial blood clot in his right shoulder and probably won't be ready to return to the Mets until sometime in August. There's also the possibility of a setback or two along the way. Addison Reed will continue to fill in at closer for New York, unless he's traded ahead of the July 31 deadline. Jul 13
