When the Mets committed to trading away some of their veteran players, they did so with an eye toward bolstering their late-inning relief. Such intent was evident in the moves they made. Whether it was Addison Reed, Lucas Duda or Curtis Granderson, the Mets turned expensive veterans into young, controllable right arms, acquiring hard-throwing relievers in each deal.
Now the Mets get to see some of their return. New York promoted right-handers Jacob Rhame and Jamie Callahan, both of whom the club acquired this season, when rosters expanded Friday.
