The New York Mets announced today that they’ve acquired Eric O’Flaherty from the Oakland Athletics in exchange for cash considerations and a player to be named later. The team also designated Alex Torres for assignment to clear space.
The A’s designated O’Flaherty this past weekend. The 30-year-old is having the worse season of his career, posting a 5.91 ERA over 21 1/3 innings. The southpaw was great during his time with the Atlanta Braves, and the Mets hope he can return to his old self.
