The New York Mets' bullpen recently lost elite closer Edwin Diaz to the IL, who has struggled immensely this year, as has the entire unit. Luckily they are close to getting an important reliever back from the IL.

The New York Mets' bullpen is about to receive some much-needed help in the form of a capable reinforcement arm.

Smith just completed his third minor league rehab appearance, and Mendoza and the Mets believe he will not require any additional rehab innings before rejoining the big-league club. Smith was one of the Mets' better relievers in the first month of the season before landing on the IL in late-April due to shoulder inflammation. Although the Mets were set to activate him a few weeks ago, the righty suffered a setback and was forced to shut things down before restarting another rehab assignment.
