NEW YORK — Barely two weeks into the season, the Mets designated veteran right-hander Luis Garc\u00eda<\/a> for assignment on Sunday. Garc\u00eda was one of three relievers the team signed to guaranteed Major League contracts over the offseason, along with Devin Williams and Luke Weaver.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Garc\u00eda\u2019s deal was worth $1.75 million, which the Mets will still be required to pay unless another team claims him off waivers, plus $1.25 million in incentives that he will no longer have a chance to collect.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

In a corresponding move, the Mets called up reliever Joey Gerber<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cWe needed [a fresh] arm, especially the way we used the bullpen the last couple of nights. We felt that we needed some protection there in case something bad happens again,\u201d manager Carlos Mendoza said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

A 14-year veteran, Garc\u00eda was coming off another strong year with the Dodgers, Nationals and Angels, posting a 3.42 ERA over 55 1\/3 innings. But his sinker velocity has taken a significant dip in his age-39 season, down almost 3 mph from his 96.9 mph average last year and almost 5 mph from his 2022 peak. Garc\u00eda allowed multiple earned runs in two of his six appearances, finishing with a 7.11 ERA. He last pitched on Saturday against the Athletics, throwing one scoreless inning.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cIt wasn\u2019t [an easy decision],” Mendoza said. \u201cObviously, Louie had to pitch yesterday. We were [hoping to stay] away from him until [Luke Weaver] got in trouble. We needed to have a fresh arm here.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The DFA was the Mets\u2019 second bullpen move of the weekend. On Saturday, they called up veteran Craig Kimbrel<\/a> and designated left-hander Richard Lovelady for assignment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Gerber, 28, last appeared in the Majors for the Rays last season. He has a 3.60 ERA over 19 Major League appearances and had pitched to a 5.40 ERA over his first four outings this year at Triple-A Syracuse.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
