Mets sign reliever Zach Pop and add him to bullpen during Subway Series

Washington Post10 hours ago
NEW YORK — Zach Pop signed a one-year contract with the New York Mets and joined their bullpen Saturday before a Subway Series game against the Yankees.
The right-hander made four relief appearances for the Seattle Mariners in June before getting designated for assignment last weekend. Rather than accept an outright assignment to the minors, he elected free agency on Wednesday.
