The Mets recalled Claudio from Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

He'll be one of two relievers joining the Mets on Wednesday, as the team has an extra roster spot available for its doubleheader with the Pirates, and another bullpen arm will be called up to replace Max Scherzer (side), who is headed to the 15-day injured list. Claudio last appeared in the big leagues in 2021 with the Angels, with whom he made 41 relief appearances. The soft-tossing lefty has pitched exclusively at Syracuse this season, compiling a 4.30 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 37:13 K:BB across 44 innings.

Claudio signed a minor-league deal with the Mets on Thursday, Chris Hilburn-Trenkle of Baseball America reports.

EDGE Analysis

Claudio struggled mightily in 2021, posting a 5.51 ERA and 1.59 WHIP across 32.2 innings as a member of the Angels. He was designated for assignment and ultimately released in July, before a brief stint with the Red Sox. Claudio will look to regain the effectiveness from earlier in his career, particularly against left-handed hitters.

Claudio was released by the Red Sox on Monday, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Claudio inked a minor-league deal with Boston on Aug. 10, but he failed to reach the big leagues before being released. He appeared in 41 contests earlier this season with the Angels, struggling to a 5.51 ERA and 1.59 WHIP with a 30:15 K:BB across 32.2 frames.

Claudio was added to the roster at Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday after signing a minor-league deal with the Red Sox, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

EDGE Analysis

Claudio was DFA'd and later released by the Angels in late July after struggling to a 5.51 ERA and 1.59 WHIP across 32.2 innings. He'll now provide relief depth for Boston at Triple-A, and if he's able to impress, the southpaw could become an option to join the Red Sox bullpen down the stretch.

The Angels released Claudio on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Claudio went unclaimed off waivers after being designated for assignment last weekend, and since he apparently wasn't interested in reporting to the Angels' Triple-A affiliate, the organization elected to cut ties with him. Prior to being dropped from the 40-man roster, Claudio made 41 relief appearances and posted a 5.51 ERA and 1.59 WHIP across 32.2 innings.

Claudio was designated for assignment by the Angels on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Claudio was supposed to bolster the Los Angeles bullpen after signing during the offseason, but he never found much consistency and posted a 5.51 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 30:15 K:BB over 32.2 innings. Sunday's starter Jaime Barria was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding move.

Claudio (1-2) took the loss against San Francisco on Wednesday, pitching a third of an inning and allowing four runs (three earned) on three walks.

EDGE Analysis

The Angels and Giants began the 13th inning tied 2-2, and Claudio got the ball with the inherited runner on second base. He induced a groundout to start the frame and subsequently walked Buster Posey intentionally, and he couldn't locate his pitches thereafter, walking the next two batters to force in a run. Claudio was consequently pulled from the contest and had to watch as all three of the runners he left on base came around to score. All told, only three of his 12 pitches went for strikes as he tied a season high with three walks.

Claudio got the save Friday against the Diamondbacks, recording a strikeout in the 10th inning of a 6-5 win.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Joe Maddon chose Claudio to pitch to Stephen Vogt with two outs and two on in a one-run game in the 10th and the lefty got Vogt swinging to record the save. The high-leverage appearance was necessitated by Claudio being the sixth Angel reliever of the game and he probably isn't in the closer conversation with a 4.56 ERA and only two holds.

Claudio (0-1) took the loss Tuesday against Cleveland while allowing one run on one hit and striking out a batter in an inning of work.

EDGE Analysis

Claudio came in to pitch the eighth inning and got two quick outs on five pitches before serving up a solo home run to Josh Naylor. The long ball would end up being the deciding factor in the game which warranted the left-hander his first loss of 2021. Claudio now owns a 4.60 ERA and 17:2 K:BB over 15.2 innings this season.

Claudio has recovered from his hip infection and is a full-go for game action, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Claudio got a late start to spring training due to the hip issue, but he's now ready to go and is likely to appear in a Cactus League contest in the coming days. The left-hander is expected to fill a middle-relief role, with some potential for setup duties, with the Angels this season.
