The New York Mets made the decision to cut ties with reliever Jorge López following an incident at Citi Field where he threw his glove into the stands after being ejected. López, who expressed no remorse for his actions, was released by the struggling Mets.
Manager Carlos Mendoza had deemed López's behavior as 'not acceptable' and stated that it would be handled internally. The right-hander's outburst occurred during a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he gave up a two-run homer to Shohei Ohtani and was subsequently ejected for arguing with an umpire over a checked swing call.
