"Mets Secure Deal with Hard-Throwing Japanese Pitcher Shintaro Fujinami"

The New York Mets are close to finalizing deals with right-hander Shintaro Fujinami and lefty Jake Diekman to bolster their bullpen, with Fujinami signing for $3.35 million plus incentives and Diekman showing improvement with the Rays last season. The Mets have been aggressive in adding bullpen help this offseason, aiming to address their 22nd-ranked bullpen ERA from last season, and are planning to invite at least 22 relievers to Major League camp to compete for open bullpen spots, with the return of Edwin Díaz from injury expected to strengthen the team's bullpen.

"Mets Set to Sign Lefty Reliever Jake Diekman, Bolster Bullpen"

The New York Mets are close to finalizing a deal with free agent left-handed pitcher Jake Diekman, offering him a one-year deal with a vesting option. Diekman, a veteran of 12 major league seasons, has been a sought-after addition to the Mets' bullpen due to his ability to miss bats despite struggling with command. The Mets have been active in revamping their bullpen, signing several free agent relievers, and are now looking to add Diekman to the mix. However, the team's high payroll and luxury tax obligations may complicate the deal.

"Mets Nearing Deal with Lefty Reliever Jake Diekman"

The New York Mets are close to finalizing a deal with left-handed reliever Jake Diekman, who had a successful stint with the Tampa Bay Rays last season. Diekman, 37, would provide an experienced left-handed option for the Mets' bullpen, which currently lacks depth in that area. The potential addition of Diekman follows the recent re-signing of veteran right-hander Adam Ottavino as the Mets continue to revamp their pitching staff.

Rays' Bullpen Shuffle Continues with DFA of Zack Burdi.

The Tampa Bay Rays continue to shuffle their bullpen, calling up Ben Heller from Triple-A, placing Zack Littell on the injured list, and designating Zack Burdi for assignment. Additional moves are expected for Thursday's game, with left-handed reliever Jake Diekman slated to return from the paternity list and righty Calvin Faucher added to the taxi squad. Shortstop Wander Franco broke a couple of droughts with a three-hit, two-RBI game, and the Rays improved to 8-2 against lefty starters and 23-5 at home.

"White Sox Revamp Roster with Hamilton and Anderson Returns"

The Chicago White Sox made 11 roster moves, including cutting former Red Sox relievers Jake Diekman and Frank German, as part of a roster overhaul. Diekman had a 7.94 ERA in 13 appearances for the White Sox this season, while German struggled with control at Triple-A Charlotte, pitching to a 7.15 ERA. The Red Sox traded Diekman to the White Sox for catcher Reese McGuire in 2020, a move that has paid off for Boston, while German was designated for assignment by the Red Sox over the winter and traded to the White Sox for minor league righty Theo Denlinger.

White Sox make 11 roster moves, including Anderson and Hamilton.

The struggling Chicago White Sox have made 11 roster moves, including the demotion of rookie outfielder Oscar Colás and the designation for assignment of veteran reliever Jake Diekman. The team has called up two new relief options from Triple-A Charlotte and welcomed back Tim Anderson and Hanser Alberto from injury rehab assignments. The moves were made in an effort to improve the team's performance, as they currently hold an 8-21 record and the worst ERA of any bullpen in the league.

"White Sox Revamp Roster with Multiple Moves, Including Hamilton and Anderson Returns"

The Chicago White Sox have made a series of roster moves, including reinstating Tim Anderson and Hanser Alberto from the injured list and selecting the contracts of Alex Colomé, Sammy Peralta, and Billy Hamilton. To make room for these players, the team designated Jake Diekman and Franklin German for assignment and optioned Óscar Colás and Lenyn Sosa to Triple-A. Diekman has struggled this season and is unlikely to be claimed off waivers due to his contract. Colás, who was given the everyday right field job this year, has been optioned to the minors after hitting just .211/.265/.276 through 25 games.
