Mets claim INF Yolmer Sanchez off waivers from Red Sox

The New York Mets claimed infielder Yolmer Sanchez off waivers from the Boston Red Sox on Thursday.

The Mets designated catcher Patrick Mazeika for assignment in a corresponding transaction.

Sanchez, 30, was designated for assignment by Boston on Tuesday after batting .108 with two RBIs in 14 games.

He is a career .243 hitter with 32 homers and 217 RBIs in 671 games with the Chicago White Sox (2014-20) and Red Sox.

Sanchez won a Gold Glove at second base in 2019 and can also play third base. The Mets placed infielders Eduardo Escobar (left oblique strain) and Luis Guillorme (groin strain) on the 10-day injured list this week.

Mazeika, 28, batted .191 with one homer and six RBIs in 24 games with the Mets this season.
