Mets Sign Colin Poche To Minor-League Deal
The New York Mets signed free-agent left-hander Colin Poche to a minor-league deal on Wednesday. Poche will report to Triple-A Syracuse and give the Mets some left-handed relief depth after they lost veteran A.J. Minter (lat) for the rest of the season. The Washington Nationals cut the 31-year-old veteran southpaw after he allowed 12 runs (11 earned) on 10 hits (one homer) while walking 12 and striking out 10 in just 8 1/3 relief innings in 13 appearances this year. Poche missed 2020 and 2021 due to injury but was much better the last three years with the Tampa Bay Rays, sporting a 3.27 ERA (4.16 FIP), A 1.13 WHIP, 10 saves, 158 strikeouts and 59 walks over 156 2/3 relief frames. A bounce-back is possible as he remains in the National League East, but Poche is off the fantasy radar for now.
