because of a flexor pronator strain in his left arm.New York recalled starter
Corey Oswalt to fill the void on the 25-man roster.Matz alerted the organization

walk in two-thirds of an inning as part of a 25-4 loss to the Washington
Nationals on Tuesday night

approach here," Mets assistant general manager John Ricco said. "It's the middle
of a long season."The 27-year-old left-hander has posted a 4.35 ERA and 1.34
WHIP with 99 strikeouts in 107.2 innings across 21 starts so far this season. He
finished the 2017 campaign with a 6.08 ERA in 13 outings and owns a 4.10 career
ERA across four years.He joins Yoenis Cespedes, Jay Bruce and David Wright on
the Mets' star-studded DL. Fellow starters Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard
have also missed time because of injuries this season.Oswalt has made six
appearances (five starts) while filling in for New York in 2018. While his ERA
stands at 5.27, his 0.98 WHIP suggests he's pitched better than his ERA
indicates.The injury issues are one reason the Mets have started to fade from
the playoff race with a 44-62 record. The New York Yankees have offered
prospects within the top 10 of their system in trade talks with the Baltimore
Orioles for star shortstop Manny Machado.George King III of theNew York Post
reported the news but did not name any specific players. The Orioles are
expected to trade Machado by the July 31 deadline before he hits the
unrestricted free-agent market this winter.The Orioles pulled Machado from their
game Sunday against the Texas Rangers after rain made the field potentially
unsafe.??hat's part of it
Adam Eaton Jersey ,??Orioles manager Buck Showaltertold reporters. ??e know what's going on, the potential. I'm not going to sit here and tell you that was
all it. My thought on that is, what are you telling the other eight people?
Obviously, there's a different situation going on with Manny. You all know that.
That had a lot to do with it. ??A month ago

I think you know what's going on.??SPN'sBuster Olneyreported the Orioles are on
the "10-yard line" in trade discussions. The Los Angeles Dodgers, Philadelphia
Phillies and Milwaukee Brewers are seen as the favorites at the moment.The
Yankees are interested in Machado but have a more immediate need in their
starting pitching staff.Luis Severino has been their only reliable
All-Star-caliber starter all season, and they've been forced to trot out the
strugglingSonny GrayandDomingo Germanevery fifth day. Finding a starter is more
pressing than adding another bat to what's already one of the best lineups in
baseball.Jim Bowdenof The Athleticalso reported the Yankees have refused to
include top pitching prospect Justus Sheffield in any negotiations, so that may
rule them out altogether.
