Mets designated RHP Fernando Nieve for assignment. |

Sat May 29 2010 | 22:47 | Mets' Nieve hit hard in first start |
Making his first start of the year, Fernando Nieve was pulled after allowing five runs in two innings Saturday against the Brewers. |
Nieve might have been just fine as a starter at the beginning of the year, but a heavy early workload out of the pen seems to have taken a toll on his stuff. He doesn't belong in the rotation right now, and it'd be no surprise to see him land on the DL soon. |

Wed Apr 28 2010 | 16:11 | Mets' Nieve records fourth hold |
Fernando Nieve picked up his fourth hold by retiring all four batters he faced Wednesday against the Dodgers. |
He threw just five pitches in the process today. Still, we're getting worried about Nieve. The right-hander is terribly injury-prone, and he's made 14 appearances in the Mets' 22 games to date. Manager Jerry Manuel used him again today even though he threw 31 pitches in two innings yesterday. He'll probably be on the DL by mid-May at this rate. |
