As the Mets prepare for Opening Day, they made four roster moves on Thursday, optioning infielder Ronny Mauricio and pitcher Joey Gerber to Triple-A Syracuse. Additionally, left-handed pitcher Brandon Waddell and right-handed pitcher Mike Baumann were reassigned to minor league camp. Mauricio’s chances of making the Opening Day roster were hindered by a crowded infield and the team’s decision not to carry a backup shortstop. The Mets’ roster currently stands at 42 players with Opening Day just one week away.
