Mets place Starling Marte (knee) on IL amid series of moves

The New York Mets placed outfielder Starling Marte on the injured list Tuesday with a bruise to his right knee, while outfielder Jesse Winker was activated from the 60-day IL.

The Mets also selected the contract of right-hander Alejandro Carrillo from Triple-A Syracuse, while right-hander Zach Pop was designated for assignment and right-hander Tylor Megill (elbow) was moved to the 60-day IL.

The club sent left-hander Sean Manaea back to Triple-A Syracuse for an outing Tuesday to continue his minor league rehab assignment as he closes in on his season debut while recovering from an elbow injury.
