That fast, huh?

Mets recently released outfielder already linked to Blue Jays after 0-13 stretch originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . The New York Mets decided to move on from outfielder Tommy Pham on Sunday, as the veteran outfielder didn't enjoy any success during his short stint in New York.

Pham, typically a very good veteran who has proven throughout his career that he can swing it at a very high level, went 0-for-13 and now finds himself without a team. Pham should be able to find another team, possibly even the Toronto Blue Jays , despite Toronto not playing all that well either. Toronto is currently 12-15 and in fourth place in the American League East, but it has been a lot better than the Mets.

โ€œThe Blue Jays haven't been anywhere near full strength so far this season. For example, the Blue Jays have been without the services of George Springer since April 11. Springer has been making progress and should be back in the near future.

But, the Blue Jays could still use some more veteran depth, at least for the bench, with all of the injuries the club has had to deal with. Toronto is just 12-15 on the season so far. The Blue Jays are going to need to dig themselves out of this hole.
