Abner was cut loose from New York’s 40-man roster earlier this week. The 24-year-old lefty posted an inflated 7.11 ERA across 19 innings between the Giants and Diamondbacks this past season.
Abner is a worthwhile depth pickup for the Mets that they may be able to stash heading into the offseason. The 24-year-old southpaw has posted an inflated 7.11 ERA across 19 innings between the Giants and Diamondbacks this season.
Abner loses his spot on San Francisco’s 40-man roster with outfield prospect Bo Davidson ascending to the majors. The 24-year-old lefty made five appearances for the Giants after being claimed off waivers from the Diamondbacks in mid-August.
The 24-year-old southpaw made five appearances during his brief time with the Giants, registering an uninspiring 9.64 ERA, 2.14 WHIP and a 4/3 K/BB ratio over 4 2/3 innings. He’ll continue to hone his craft at the Triple-A level.
Abner gets his first chance with San Francisco leading into Monday’s series opener against the Reds. The 24-year-old lefty was claimed off waivers from the division-rival Diamondbacks last month after posting an underwhelming 6.28 ERA across 14 1/3 innings of work this season.
Abner heads to Triple-A Sacramento as organizational relief depth after being jettisoned from Arizona’s roster over the weekend. The 24-year-old southpaw recorded a lackluster 6.28 ERA across 14 1/3 innings for the Diamondbacks earlier this season.
Abner has struggled in eight appearances with the Diamondbacks this season, posting a 6.28 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and a 6/8 K/BB ratio across 14 1/3 innings of work. It feels like there’s a decent chance he may pass through waivers unclaimed. Dennis Santana was added to the Diamondbacks’ bullpen in a corresponding move on Sunday.
Abner returns to Arizona’s bullpen mix with veteran Ryan Thompson hitting the shelf with a back issue. The 24-year-old southpaw has allowed seven runs across 9 1/3 innings at the highest level this season.
Abner retreats to the minors after tossing a pair of scoreless innings against the Cardinals on Sunday. The 24-year-old rookie has allowed seven runs across 9 1/3 innings for the Diamondbacks this season.
Abner returns to add a fresh arm to the Diamondbacks’ bullpen for the final four games heading into the All-Star break. The 24-year-old southpaw holds a 9.95 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and a 4/4 K/BB ratio over 6 1/3 innings in three appearances with the D’Backs this season.
Abner returns to the minors after tossing 2 2/3 scoreless frames in relief during Saturday’s contest against the Twins. He’ll return at some point in a couple weeks as middle relief depth.
Abner might just be up until the D-backs need to add a starter. He has given up seven earned runs in 3 2/3 innings for the D-backs this season.
Abner joined the Diamondbacks’ bullpen on Thursday when Taylor Clarke went on the bereavement list and now will head right back to Triple-A with Clarke returning. The 24-year-old southpaw has surrendered seven runs on six hits in 3 2/3 innings with the Diamondbacks this season, good for a cringe-inducing 17.18 ERA and 2.18 WHIP.
Abner, still just 24, allowed 2 runs in 2 1/3 innings in a stint with the Diamondbacks earlier this year. He hasn’t done much better at Triple-A Reno, with a 5.12 ERA in 19 1/3 innings, but is probably the slight favorite to remain in the pen once Taylor Clarke returns from the bereavement list over Kade Strowd.
Abner threw 2 1/3 innings on Thursday, allowing two runs on one hit. The Diamondbacks will get a fresh arm up in the bullpen, but the 23-year-old should get another chance later this season.
Abner returns to the big leagues for the first time since posting a pedestrian 4.91 ERA across 3 2/3 innings for Arizona last year. The 23-year-old southpaw will operate in middle relief situations for the Diamondbacks.
Abner is one of the D-backs best relief pitching prospects — yes, that technically is a thing — but won’t make the Opening Day roster. Garcia and Amaya were both signed as non-roster invites but will either test free agency or report to Reno as well.
The 23-year-old Abner will be making his major league debut after posting a 3.07 ERA and a 70/16 K/BB in 58 2/3 innings over 53 appearances at three levels. He has a quality slider, but that he throws just 89-92 mph might prove to be a problem for him in the majors.
