Mazeika was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old worked as the Mets' backup catcher while Tomas Nido (wrist) was on the injured list, so he'll head back to the minors with Nido activated Friday. Mazeika is 6-for-22 in 16 games this season and should remain in the minors as long as James McCann and Nido remain healthy.
