Eveland (elbow) has allowed one run on two hits in one spring-training appearance. Eveland pitched well for the Mets last season before a September elbow injury shut him down. There are a few lefties ahead of him in the pecking order, so he'll need to rehabilitate his major-league bona fides at Triple-A Pawtucket.

Eveland (elbow) agreed to a minor league split contract with the Red Sox that includes an invite to spring training, SB Nation's Chris Cotillo reports. He was shut down with elbow inflammation in September of last season, so it will be worth monitoring how he progresses when he reports to camp. Eveland posted a 2.63 ERA in 27.1 innings out of the bullpen for the Mets last season, so if he can return to form, there is a chance he could break camp as a member of Boston's bullpen.

Eveland was outrighted off the 40-man roster and has elected to become a free agent, Adam Rubin of ESPN reports. Eveland was shut down for the remainder of the season due to an elbow issue, but instead of accepting an assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas, he will shop his services elsewhere as a free agent.

Eveland (elbow) will be shut down for the remainder of the season, The Record reports. Eveland continues to experience pain and inflammation in his throwing elbow, and the team has made the call to shut him down in hopes of avoiding a serious injury. An MRI last week revealed no structural damage, so Eveland will return to his home in California to rest and begin rehab. "There was really no sense in ramping it back up for three games," Eveland said. "They figured the best thing was send me home, let me start my rehab at home, and let me be 100 percent for next year."

Eveland (elbow) is likely out for the remainder of the season, Kristie Ackert of the NY Daily News reports. An MRI on Eveland's pitching elbow Thursday showed lots of inflammation but no structural damage. Eveland has been bothered by elbow woes the past three weeks, receiving a cortisone shot on August 20. He will finish the year with a 2.63 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 27:6 K:BB ratio in 27,1 innings.

Eveland (elbow) recorded the final two outs of the eighth inning in Friday's loss to the Dodgers. Eveland relieved Rafael Montero and promptly gave up a single to Andre Ethier, but then got Dee Gordon to fly out and Yasiel Puig to ground out to end the threat. The lefty received a cortisone shot earlier in the week to treat an ailing elbow, but apparently the issue is not something that will cost Eveland additional time in the short term.

Eveland is unavailable Wednesday after requiring an injection in his elbow, Jared Diamond of the Wall Street Journal reports. Eveland has experienced elbow problems in recent days and could require some additional games off. Injuries aside, the 30-year-old has been rather dependable in relief for the Mets, posting a 3.09 ERA and 1.07 WHIP over 23.1 innings.

An X-ray on Dana Eveland's left elbow came back clean. Eveland was hit on the pitching elbow by a comebacker Monday. While he escaped serious injury, it wouldn't be a surprise if he was unavailable for a few days.

Mets purchased the contract of LHP Dana Eveland from Triple-A Las Vegas. Eveland held a 3.91 ERA while striking out 58 over 46 innings at Vegas. The 30-year-old hasn't appeared in the majors since 2012. He'll be used as a long man in the bullpen.

Dana Eveland will join the Mets on Sunday. The Mets need some bullpen depth after going late into extra innings with the Phillies in two straight games. Eveland last appeared in the majors in 2012, when he posted a 4.73 ERA in 32 1/3 innings with the Orioles.
