They’ll take the spots of the two left-handers that had previously spent time in the pen, Jose Castillo and Richard Lovelady, who were both designated for assignment after pitching in Tuesday’s loss to Atlanta.
The 27-year-old Pintaro pitched in 11 games at Double-A Binghamton this season — all starts — but will likely be used in a long-relief role with the Mets.
