Mets sent RHP Craig Kimbrel outright to Triple-A Syracuse.

Kimbrel will presumably stick around as emergency organizational relief depth with the Mets after passing through waivers unclaimed. The 37-year-old tossed 2 2/3 innings during his final appearance for New York last week. He wound up allowing 12 runs — 10 earned — with a 15/6 K/BB ratio across 15 innings of work over 14 appearances.
