The Mets designated Yacabonis for assignment Saturday, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
EDGE Analysis
A week after being selected to the Mets' active roster, Yacabonis will once again lose his spot on the 40-man and pass through waivers in order to clear room for Denyi Reyes. Yacabonis allowed one run over 4.2 innings during his last stint in the majors.

The Mets selected Yacabonis' contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Yacabonis will provide the big club with a fresh arm after the bullpen was taxed for six innings behind David Peterson on Friday. Considering Yacabonis has a 6.24 career ERA and a 9.00 ERA in nine innings in the majors this season, it's unlikely we'll see him in any important spots.

Yacabonis was sent outright to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Yacabonis was removed from the 40-man roster May 30, and the left-hander has deal with a strained left quad since May 9. He'll be able to report back to Triple-A and provide some pitching depth in the minors, but he won't be able to help the Mets without being placed back on the 40-man.

Yacabonis (2-0) picked up the win Wednesday, allowing one run on two hits and a walk over 2.2 innings of relief. He struck out one.
EDGE Analysis
The journeyman right-hander entered the game to begin the fourth inning following Max Scherzer's ejection, putting him in position for the win when the Mets took the lead for good in the fifth. Yacabonis has two wins in two appearances since joining the Mets' bullpen over the weekend to fill a long-relief role, but with the team likely scrambling to patch together its staff with Scherzer facing a 10-game suspension for use of a foreign substance, Yacabonis could be cycled out for a fresh bullpen arm at some point over the next couple weeks.
