The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal reports “Mets (are) calling up RHP Trevor Hildenberger, source tells @TheAthletic. Betances to IL with right shoulder impingement.”
Introducing Yankees Insider:
Betances struggled in spring training, posting a 7.71 ERA in seven appearances. But heading into the regular season, Betances had the support of Mets manager Luis Rojas. Per WFAN:
“With Dellin, we’ve always heard that the velo increases as camp goes. So we haven’t really paid attention to that. We trust his recent history, before he had the injury … He’s been consistent. He’s throwing the ball with better command.”

Dellin Betances’ disappointing Mets tenure continued on Thursday, when the team placed him on the 10-day injured list due to a right shoulder impingement. The team selected the contract of side-arming right-hander Trevor Hildenberger to take his place in the bullpen.
The move comes one day after Betances struggled in his season debut in Philadelphia, topping out at 93 mph and averaging 92 mph with his four-seam fastball. Those numbers were consistent with Betances’ spring velocity and down from last summer, when he averaged 93 mph on his fastball and touched 97 mph.
