Returns to New York
The Mets claimed Tonkin off waivers from the Twins on Wednesday, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Tonkin doesn't have any minor-league options remaining, so he'll be added to the Mets' 26-man active roster and will presumably join the big club for the start of its series three-game series in Los Angeles versus the Dodgers this weekend. New York designated lefty Tyler Jay for assignment to clear room on the 40-man roster for Tonkin, who has allowed four earned runs on eight hits and three walks over six innings across his four relief appearances this season between the Twins and an earlier stint with the Mets.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2014
Tonkin finally became a regular in the Minnesota bullpen last season after dominating at Triple-A and failing to stick in the majors the previous two years. Unfortunately, he struggled with the long ball as he allowed 12 home runs and had an ugly 5.02 ERA. However, there are some encouraging signs as he had a 10.1 K/9 and his long ball problems may have been due to a 16.0 percent HR/FB. He'll need to improve against left-handed batters as he allowed a 1.061 OPS to lefties, but Tonkin will attempt to stay in the majors and win a bullpen role again this spring.
