Mets left-handed reliever Josh Edgin was officially assigned to AAA Las Vegas today, as his 30-day rehab window has expired. Edgin has pitched good between both St. Lucie and Las Vegas posting a 1.13 ERA in ten appearances but his velocity isn’t quite back to where it was previously. Edgin’s fastball velocity has hovered between 87-88 mph, but prior to his elbow injury his average fastball was sitting at 92 mph. With the Mets bullpen being as strong as it has been through the first month of the season there is no need to rush Edgin back at this point. Edgin has also not appeared in back-to-back games yet which is another feat he will have to accomplish before being recalled.
