That wouldn't make sense with how thin the starting pitching depth is for the organization after the trade deadline. What are they going to do if there's a "real" injury to someone in the rotation while Nestor is on the 15 day IL?
I think it’s phantom also and the answer to the previous post is they had no good answers with Schmidt in the pen anyway. In either case, I think the answer is actually Deivi Garcia, let’s hope we don’t find out before Severino or Nestor is back.
40 man they can put Bader on the 60 day, he’s been on almost that long already (6/27).

I think this is one reason why people hate Yankees fans. Lots are so delusional. Pretty much the only fanbase in baseball that thinks that Phantom IL is something their team regularly does. This is, what, the fourth pitcher in the past month to hit the so called Phantom IL? Severino, Holmes, Abreu and now Nestor?
Severino publicly complained about going to the 60 day IL, Abreu would have been DFAd otherwise, Holmes’ mechanics were a mess, and Nestor’s innings are at a career high. All make sense individually, I’m not claiming anything definitively.
Ugh..because it's common for teams to do this when they're up 9 games? The Yankees rest their position players at a pretty crazy clip. Also, nobody said Severino was on the phantom IL, they said - because the pitcher himself said - that they didn't understand how they could push him on the 60 day if he was getting ready to return. I never heard peep about Holmes or Abreu.
Regardless, the starting rotation is not thin at all. We've got too many pitchers actually, still. Cole, Montas, German, Taillon, Schmidt, Severino, Cortes and more depth from AAA to burrow from in spot starts.
You always say this and it's usually not worth disagreeing because it's kind of a subjective thing but man, I don't know. Our fans are knuckleheads at our worst but on average it's a pretty tame fan base IMO. If you want the crazy fanbase, look at LA or Philly. To me, Boston and NY fans are just there for the day out and a baseball game with the obvious wild cards in the crowd.
Fair. But it balances out because every other one of the NY sports teams (Rangers notwithstanding) suck and our fans suffer. Mets aren't a NY team. They're like an alien race that moved to Queens.
Confirmed, Bader is the 40 man move to get Weissert on the roster, Florial down, Nestor to the IL, Stanton back, Weissert added to the 40 man and promoted.
Who went down to accommodate Holmes return? I checked a couple of sites but all they have is Marwin Gonzales going on the paternity list and Locastro replacing him. Unless I'm missing something, I thought another move was needed to get Holmes back on active roster?
Thank you. I missed the Bard move after Sunday's game. Holmes looked good last nite.
Some tough decisions are going to need to be made here shortly if rehabbing guys impress. NY can have nine relievers active, currently that is:
Ryan Weber
Clarke Schmidt
Lucas Luetge
Greg Weissert
Ron Marinaccio
Lou Trivino
Wandy Peralta
Jonathan Loaisiga
Clay Holmes
NY already announced Chapman is back for the next game, so that will probably be Weber DFAd one more time, as German and Schmidt can both be long guys now. Severino is scheduled to start next Wednesday (Weissert sent down, I'd guess), Effross, Britton, Castro, Abreu and Ridings are all on their way back too to one degree or another, time is running out and roster spots are tight.

OK, let's update this, and I am leaving out Jacob Barnes and Chi Chi Gonzalez as presumably both will be gone by Monday.
Currently active:
Domingo German
Clarke Schmidt
Lucas Luetge
Aroldis Chapman
Scott Effross
Ron Marinaccio
Lou Trivino
Jonathan Loaisiga
Clay Holmes
Wandy needs to come back (I don't think he was actually hurt) and bump either Luetge or Chapman. Holmes just got a cortisone shot and is not pitching the rest of the regular season but last I heard they expected him OK for the ALDS.
Castro and Abreu are with the team and ready to go if needed, Weissert is presumably staying ready somewhere too. Ridings has been ruled out, same with Britton. Montas also could be a 2-3 inning option, wonder if he will get a test outing in TEX.

Marinaccio has a shin injury that has been bothering him throughout the season. Doesn't sound like he's at risk for the playoffs.
