ANALYSISStanek's spot in Seattle's bullpen was in jeopardy after the Mariners acquired
Yimi Garcia from the Blue Jays earlier Friday, and the former will now call New York his new home. Stanek has struggled in his eight outings in July, allowing five runs on five hits and six walks and striking out eight over 5.2 innings while registering two blown saves and a loss. Across his 46 outings for the season, Stanek has a 4.38 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, 15 holds and seven saves across 39 innings. The 33-year-old right-hander will provide depth out of the Mets' bullpen and figures to be the second closer behind
Edwin Diaz.
