Jorge López has been cut by the struggling New York Mets, a day after the reliever threw his glove into the stands following his ejection at Citi Field.

New York also recalled left-handed pitcher Danny Young from Triple-A Syracuse before a series opener against NL champion Arizona. The Mets have seven days to trade or release López, or to assign him outright to the minors if he goes unclaimed.

"I don't regret it. I think I've been looking the worst teammate probably in the whole ... MLB," López said, using a profanity. After his cap fell off his head as well, López left it laying in the dirt in front of the dugout and headed for the bench.In his first season with the Mets, the 31-year-old López is 1-2 with a 3.76 ERA and two saves in 28 appearances - among the most in the majors. He signed a $2 million, one-year contract with New York in December.
