Warren had a strong showing during Grapefruit League action, compiling a 1.80 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and a 5/2 K/BB ratio across five innings in his five appearances. He’ll almost assuredly get a chance to work out of the Mets’ bullpen at some point during the 2026 season.

The 36-year-old right-hander suffered the injury while pitching for Team Israel in the World Baseball Classic. It’s a tough blow for the veteran hurler, though he indicated optimism that he could return before the end of the 2026 campaign.

He’ll be replaced on the team by Tanner Jacobson. No word yet from the Mets on the severity of the shoulder issue for Stock or how long he’ll be shelved for. The 36-year-old right-hander as in camp as a non-roster invitee hoping to secure a role in the team’s Opening Day bullpen.

Garrett Stubbs tripled in the only run of the game today. Stock averaged 95 mph with his fastball as a Triple-A starter last spring, but he’s been up at 96.5 mph in his two appearances this spring and his cutter has been reliably in the low-90s. He’s going to be a long shot to make the Mets out of spring training, but he could see time in middle relief later on.

Stock heads to New York as organizational depth after making a pair of relief appearances for the Red Sox last season. The 36-year-old journeyman spent most of the year at Triple-A Worcester, recording a strong 3.92 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 96/36 K/BB.ratio over 85 innings over 19 appearances (15 starts), He’ll compete for a spot in the Mets’ bullpen during spring training.

Stock made single appearances for the Red Sox in April and June, allowing a total of three runs in 2 2/3 innings. He mostly started in Triple-A and was 5-4 with a 3.92 ERA and a 96/36 K/BB in 85 innings. His control has been an issue since he became a sidearmer, but he’s a tough at-bat for right-handers, and there’s still a chance he could contribute.

Stock went unclaimed after being designated for assignment by the Red Sox on Wednesday. He could elect free agency, but seems more likely to report back to Worcester than to test those waters.

Stock, called up Saturday, struggled while trying to finish off the Yankees last night, walking three of the six batters he faced and giving up two runs. He’ll likely be going on waivers for the second time this year.

Stock returns to the majors for the first time since he was designated for assignment back in April. The 35-year-old will provide a fresh arm, but likely not in a high-leverage situation while he’s with Boston in this stint.

Stock was designated for assignment and went unclaimed. The right-hander will be a depth option in the minors in 2025, and Boston will need to select his contract again in order to add him to the MLB roster.
