Edwards had a clause in his contract that allowed him to elect free agency rather than report to Triple-A Syracuse.
The Mets designated him for assignment last week to remove him from the 40-man roster and send him down to the minor leagues. But a player with Edwards' veteran status can essentially refuse the assignment and become a free agent instead. That's what Edwards did.
He pitched twice for the Mets recently, allowing just one run in six innings while striking out 11.
Apparently even in this bumpy Mets bullpen, that wasn't enough to stick around.
Edwards pitched briefly for both the Rangers and Angels in 2025, but he's very much in the journeyman stage of his career.
A long time ago now, he was a promising prospect in the Chicago Cubs' system as a starting pitcher, but he's strictly a reliever now and can't seem to stick around anywhere.
There's always a chance he circles back to the Mets if there isn't an MLB offer for Edwards out there, but he's pursuing such an opportunity first in case he can stay in the big leagues rather than going to Triple-A.
Carl Edwards Jr. left the Mets due to recent roster maneuvering that led to his release.
As a free agent, Carl Edwards Jr. can now sign with any MLB team after clearing waivers.
It is currently unknown which team Carl Edwards Jr. will join, as he is free to negotiate with any MLB franchise.
