News
	Zac Gallen threw 45 pitches in a bridge camp game in Arizona on Tuesday. Ari Koslow Wed, Aug 26th	The Mets are optioning Jonah Tong to Triple-A Syracuse. Ari Koslow Wed, Jun 3rd
	Zac Gallen will face hitters in a simulated game on Tuesday. Ari Koslow Mon, Aug 24th	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
	Zac Gallen threw a 33-pitch bullpen session on Tuesday. Ari Koslow Tue, Aug 11th	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
	Zac Gallen has progressed to throwing out to 120 feet. Ari Koslow Fri, Aug 7th	Jonah Tong will make a bulk relief appearance on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Tue, May 26th
	The Diamondbacks transferred Zac Gallen to the 60-day injured list. Ari Koslow Mon, Aug 3rd	Jonah Tong is expected to pitch again on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Sat, May 23rd
