Edwards signed a minor-league contract with the Tigers on Friday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

May 8Rotowire

Edwards elected free agency after being DFA'd by the Mets, and he'll now aim to carve out a role for himself in the Tigers organization. The 34-year-old righty gave up just one earned run and struck out 11 batters in six innings with the Mets, though he's posted a 5.29 ERA and 1.47 WHIP in 17 frames in Triple-A.

Edwards elected free agency on Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

May 4Rotowire

Edwards cleared waivers after being removed from the Mets' 40-man roster, but he will become a free agent rather than accept an outright assignment. Edwards has posted a 1.50 ERA with 11 strikeouts over six frames during his time with the Mets this season.

The Mets designated Edwards for assignment Thursday.

Apr 30Rotowire

Edwards gave the Mets exactly what they needed, saving the bullpen with a couple extended relief outings over the last few days. However, he threw 50 pitches over 2.2 innings in Wednesday's loss to the Nationals, so the club is replacing him with a fresh bullpen arm in righty Austin Warren, who was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse.

The Mets selected Edwards' contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Apr 24Rotowire

Edwards has struggled as a member of the Syracuse rotation this season, collecting a 5.29 ERA and 13:11 K:BB over 17 innings covering four starts. However, he can provide length in the bullpen, which the Mets need after starter Christian Scott lasted only 1.1 innings Thursday versus the Twins. Edwards' stay in the big leagues will likely be brief.

The Mets reassigned Edwards to minor-league camp Sunday.

Mar 15Rotowire

Edwards, who made four appearances in the big leagues last season between the Angels and Rangers, had been attending camp as a non-roster invitee. He was impressive with 11 strikeouts in 8.2 innings while holding hitters to a .103 batting average, but the Mets didn't have a spot available for him in their Opening Day bullpen.
