After having to leave through three innings last night, ex-Met Tom Glavine is headed to the DL with a strained left elbow. Glavine has been average at best thus far, with a 2-3 record through 12 starts with a 4.85 ERA. This is only Glavine’s 2nd stint on the DL throughout his 22 year career.

According to the Camden Riversharks, an independent league team, the Braves have added depth that is familiar to the Mets. They purchased the contract of SP Brian Lawrence, who made six starts between August and September for the Mets last year. Lawrence had been pitching for the independent league Camden Riversharks and will be assigned to AAA.
