Mets Claim Philip Abner

The Mets have claimed left-hander Philip Abner off waivers from the Giants, per Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area. The southpaw was designated for assignment earlier this week. The Mets have a full 40-man roster and will need to open a spot but that could be as easy as transferring someone to the 60-day injured list.
More to come.
