Ahead of what could be a busy trade deadline for the New York Mets, manager Carlos Mendoza provided an update on the return of one of the team’s star players. S

Buttó had not appeared in an MLB game since June 28. In the 18 games that followed, the Mets’ bullpen recorded a 4.89 ERA. His return helps bolster a bullpen that lost A.J. Minter, Max Kranick, Danny Young and Dedniel Núñez to season-ending injuries.

New York Mets fans were quick to blame manager Carlos Mendoza for his questionable bullpen management in the team's 3-1 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday afternoon, but a punchless offense is really at fault.
