Right-hander Luis García has been released by the Mets after being designated for assignment. The 39-year-old veteran, who signed a one-year, $1.75MM deal, made six appearances this season, allowing five earned runs over 6 1/3 innings. While García had been effective last year, his performance declined, prompting the Mets to cut ties. He is expected to attract interest from other clubs seeking a veteran pitcher, as they would only owe him a prorated league minimum salary.
