The New York Mets today recalled outfielder Carlos Gomez from New Orleans (AAA) of the Pacific Coast League and optioned righthanded pitcher Mike Pelfrey to the Zephyrs. Gomez will wear #27 and will be available for today's game vs. Milwaukee.
Gomez, 21, was hitting .286 (40-140) with 24 runs scored, eight doubles, two triples, two home runs, 13 RBI, 17 stolen bases with 15 walks and 23 strikeouts in 36 games this year with New Orleans. Gomez is leading the PCL in stolen bases.
Carlos batted .222 (2-9) with one run scored and two RBI in 10 spring training games for the Mets.
He was the co-winner of the Sterling Award, emblematic of the Most Valuable Player at Binghamton (AA) of the Eastern League in 2006. Gomez finished second in the EL with 41 stolen bases and fifth with eight triples. Carlos also batted .281 (121-430) with 53 runs scored, 24 doubles, seven home runs and 48 RBI with Binghamton.
The 6-4, 195-pounder was signed by New York as a non-drafted free agent on July 27, 2002.
Mike Pelfrey was 0-5 with a 6.53 ERA in six starts for New York. Thursday's starter against the Cubs is to be determined.
