Mets Option Logan Verrett to Triple-A

The New York Mets have sent RHP Logan Verrett to Triple-A in Las Vegas and have called reliever RHP Erik Goeddel. Verett was sent down since the Mets needed a fresh arm out of the bullpen for today's game. Verrett gave up 5 runs yesterday on four hits and four walks. Goeddel has struggled in Triple-A with an ERA of 4.94, a WHIP of 1.563 and has given up 4.9 walks per 9 innings. He has allowed 37 baserunners in 23.2 innings pitched. Hopefully Goeddel can pitch better in the Major Leagues and become another reliable option for the Mets to use in the bullpen.
