The New York Mets are expanding their active roster to 28 players on Tuesday, adding outfielder Nick Morabito and right-handed pitcher Justin Hagenman. The team also reinstated Mark Vientos from the injured list following a fractured hand, while Luis Robert Jr. departed the organization after being claimed off waivers by the Baltimore Orioles. Interim manager Andy Green indicated that the September additions aim to focus on development and managing the workload of younger pitchers. Morabito will receive opportunities to play in the outfield, while Hagenman is scheduled to start Wednesday's series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays. Vientos remains in the mix for designated hitter and first base at-bats, though Jared Young is expected to receive the majority of playing time at first base for the remainder of the season.
