It was only a matter of hours before Sánchez found a new landing spot. The Mets placed Francisco Alvarez on the injured list this week. He's dealing with a thumb injury that'll require surgery at some point, though he and the team are holding out hope that can be delayed until the offseason. That leaves them with a catching duo of Luis Torrens and Hayden Senger.

David Stearns mentioned, "I think it's always a combination of when, developmentally, those guys are ready. And also when there's the need and how to fit it on the roster." He indicates that promoting top pitching prospects is considered when necessary and timely.

The New York Mets possess a strong farm system with several Top 100 prospects, giving them leverage at the trade deadline to strengthen their team.
