Rick Ankiel went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer Saturday against the Cubs.
Ankiel is 6-for-20 (.300) with two homers, four RBI and six strikeouts since joining the Mets earlier this week. The 33-year-old is not going to hit for a high batting average, but he has enough pop to be useful in NL-only leagues as long as he gets regular at-bats in center field.
May 18 - 4:06 PM
Rick Ankiel went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI but the Mets fell to the Cardinals on Wednesday.
Ankiel singled in the top of the second inning and then hit a game-tying two-run homer in the top of the seventh. But the Mets wound up losing their third straight game in St. Louis. Ankiel is 2-for-8 since joining New York.
May 15 - 11:30 PM
Mets manager Terry Collins said Monday that Rick Ankiel and Juan Lagares will platoon in center field.
Ankiel will start against right-handed pitchers while Lagares will play against southpaws. We're not expecting much in the way of batting average, but Ankiel could provide enough pop to hold some value in NL-only formats. This arrangement could cut into at-bats for Jordany Valdespin, though Collins has talked about using him at second base if Daniel Murphy continues to struggle.

Mets signed OF Rick Ankiel to a one-year contract.
CBS Sports' Jon Heyman was the first to report that the two sides were talking. Ankiel batted just .194 with 35 strikeouts in 65 plate appearances before getting released last week by the Astros, but he has some power and a big arm. The 33-year-old should see semi-regular playing time in a New York outfield that lacks talent. He's starting in center field Monday night against the Cardinals in St. Louis.

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.

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.

Frank Francisco
D.L.
Frank Francisco (elbow) has resumed throwing.
Francisco was diagnosed with a mild strain of the flexor pronator in his right elbow last week, but he's already back at it. However, it's not clear if he's throwing from a mound or simply playing catch or long-tossing. Either way, he's not close to rejoining the Mets' bullpen.

Scott Atchison
D.L.
Mets placed RHP Scott Atchison on the 15-day disabled list with inflammation in his right elbow.
Collin McHugh was called up from Triple-A Las Vegas to fill the vacant bullpen spot. Atchison has been shut down for a week and prescribed anti-inflammatory medication. It's not clear when he might return.

LaTroy Hawkins

Jeurys Familia
D.L.
Mets placed RHP Jeurys Familia on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 9, with right biceps tendinitis.
Familia's velocity has been down of late, and the Mets figured out that it's because his bicep is a tad sore. It's not clear at this point how long he'll be out. Greg Burke has taken his spot in the bullpen.
