Lovelady has been removed from New York’s 40-man roster to make room for Craig Kimbrel after allowing five runs over 7 1/3 innings of work this season. The 30-year-old lefty should attract some interest on waivers, but history tells us he eventually winds up back with the Mets down the line.

The man they call “Dickey” will now hit the waiver wire after spending a little under a month with the Mets. The 30-year-old could be claimed by a team interested in some southpaw help, but is just as likely to clear waivers and either report back to Triple-A or hit free agency.

Lovelady returns to New York’s relief corps after making one relief appearance earlier this month in his previous stint.
