News
	The Mets are optioning Jonah Tong to Triple-A Syracuse. Ari Koslow Wed, Jun 3rd	The White Sox activated RHP Jordan Hicks from the 15-day injured list. Ari Koslow Sun, Jun 21st
	Senga (back) could return from the injured list as soon as next week, leaving Tong without a guaranteed major-league spot. The Mets could shift him to the bullpen for a longer look against big-league hitters. Across three bulk-relief assignments this season, Tong has a 3.60 ERA, 1.50 WHIP, and 7:7 K:BB over 10 innings, with walks limiting his ability to work deep into games. Bruno Mulé Wed, Jun 3rd	Jordan Hicks will begin a rehab assignment on Saturday with Triple-A Charlotte. Ari Koslow Fri, Jun 12th
	Senga (back) is expected to return to the Mets' rotation soon, which could push Tong back to Triple-A, where he struggled earlier this season. Tong entered Wednesday as a bulk reliever behind opener Huascar Brazoban, who threw one inning, in his second such appearance of the year. Bruno Mulé Thu, May 28th	The White Sox placed Jordan Hicks on the 15-day injured list with a lat strain. Ari Koslow Sat, May 23rd
	Jonah Tong will make a bulk relief appearance on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Tue, May 26th	Jordan Hicks walked one and struck out one over 1 1/3 scoreless innings in Monday’s win over Marlins Chris Schommer Tue, Mar 31st
	Jonah Tong is expected to pitch again on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Sat, May 23rd	The Chicago White Sox have acquired right-hander Jordan Hicks from the Boston Red Sox. Brenton Kemp Sun, Feb 1st
