PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) -- Right-hander Marcos Carvajal was claimed by the New York Mets off waivers from the Tampa Bay Devil Rays on Friday.
The 22-year-old was 2-2 with a 3.86 ERA in 38 games last season with Double-A Montgomery of the Southern League, striking out 70 in 72 1-3 innings. He was 0-2 with a 5.09 ERA in 39 games with Colorado in 2005.
New York opened a roster spot for him by designating right-hander Steve Schmoll for assignment. The Mets have 10 days to trade him, send him outright to the minors or release him.

What are all your thoughts? I think this will be a postivove move, he is very young yet and has a pretty high k ratio.
