Rockies' Corey Oswalt: Shipped to Colorado
The Rockies acquired Oswalt from the Phillies on Sunday for cash, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
He'll be changing organizations for the second time this season, after the Phillies previously acquired Oswalt from the Giants in early May. Between stops with the Giants' and Phillies' Triple-A affiliates this season, Oswalt has produced a 6.11 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 31:15 K:BB across 35.1 innings.

Phillies' Corey Oswalt: Sent to Philadelphia
Oswalt was traded from the Giants to the Phillies on Sunday in exchange for cash considerations.
Oswalt posted a 3.48 ERA in a small sample of 10.1 innings for the Mets last season, though that was only good enough to reduce his career ERA to 5.89. He's been poor in 12.2 frames for Triple-A Sacramento this year, struggling to a 7.11 ERA.

Giants' Corey Oswalt: Healthy at minor-league camp
Oswalt (knee) is scheduled to pitch a simulated game at the Giants' minor-league camp Tuesday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Signed to a minor-league deal by San Francisco earlier in the winter, Oswalt looks to be ready to go for the start of the 2022 campaign after he concluded the 2021 season on a rehab assignment in the minors following a prolonged shutdown due to a right knee injury. The 29-year-old right-hander had served as organizational pitching depth for the Mets over the last four seasons, making 26 appearances (14 starts) in total for the big club. Though the Giants let Kevin Gausman walk in free agency earlier in the offseason and didn't add any new starters to the 40-man roster, Oswalt probably isn't a serious candidate to open the season with the major-league squad. Instead, he'll likely slot into the rotation at Triple-A Sacramento.

Giants' Corey Oswalt: Signs minor-league deal
Oswalt (knee) signed a minor-league deal with the Giants on Thursday, Chris Hilburn-Trenkle of Baseball America reports.
Oswalt threw a total of 27.1 innings as a member of the Mets in 2021, 10.1 of which came with the big-league club. He managed an impressive 10:2 K:BB, but his next challenge will be proving that he has overcome knee inflammation that ended his season in early July. While he was unable to return to the big-league mound, Oswalt was in the midst of a rehab assignment at the close of the campaign, meaning it is likely that he will be healthy for spring training.

Corey Oswalt: Heads to open market
Oswalt (knee) cleared waivers and elected free agency Friday.
Oswalt looked good in a tiny sample of 10.1 major-league innings for the Mets this season, allowing four runs while striking out 10 and walking just two. He hit the injured list with knee inflammation in early July and wound up missing the rest of the year, though he did return for some rehab appearances near the end of the season, which could help him earn what will probably be a minor-league deal over the winter.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Rehabbing in Florida
Oswalt (knee) made his third rehab appearance with Low-A St. Lucie on Sunday, tossing two scoreless innings while allowing no hits and issuing one walk.
Oswalt looks ready to return from the 60-day injured list, but it's unclear if the Mets plan on activating him before season's end. Even with the active roster having expanded to 28 men in September, the Mets may not be eager to make a corresponding 40-man roster move to clear a spot for a low-leverage reliever like Oswalt.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Shifts to 60-day injured list
Oswalt (knee) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Monday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Oswalt has been out for two weeks with what was originally called right knee inflammation. The issue is evidently serious enough to sideline him for at least 60 days, meaning he'll be ineligible to return until early September.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Out with knee inflammation
Oswalt was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with right knee inflammation, Deesha Thosar of the New York Daily News reports.
The right-hander apparently suffered the injury during his start in Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Yankees. He took the loss after giving up three runs on four hits with four strikeouts and a walk across four frames, and he didn't appear to be dealing with an obvious injury. Regardless, Oswalt will head to the shelf and be eligible to rejoin the active roster coming out of the All-Star break July 16.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Suffers first loss
Oswalt (1-1) lost Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader with the Yankees, 4-2, allowing three runs on four hits and a walk with four strikeouts in four innings.
Making his first start of 2021, Oswalt pitched well aside from a Gio Urshela three-run home run that ended up being his demise. He's now allowed four runs across 10.1 innings in three appearances this season, surrendering 12 hits and a walk with 10 strikeouts.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Set to start Game 2
Oswalt is expected to start Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Yankees, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Oswalt pitched last Sunday against the Phillies and delivered four scoreless frames in long relief, so he should be able to provide some length in Sunday's nightcap. The right-hander has allowed a run on eight hits with six strikeouts and a walk through 6.1 big-league innings this season.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Records win in 2021 debut
Oswalt (1-0) picked up the win in Wednesday's 7-3 victory over Atlanta, allowing one run on four hits and a walk over 2.1 innings of relief. He struck out two.
He gave up back-to-back hits sandwiched around a wild pitch to begin his season debut in the top of the sixth inning, allowing Atlanta to cash in its final run of the game, but Oswalt settled down after that and didn't let the opposition get any closer. The right-hander was credited with his first big-league win since 2018 as a result, though he'll likely remain in a long relief role until the Mets need to churn his bullpen spot for a fresh arm.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Contract selected by Mets
Oswalt had his contract selected by the Mets on Wednesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
The 27-year-old was designated for assignment in February but will now rejoin the 40-man roster. Oswalt appeared in four games for the Mets last season and posted a 4.85 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 11:2 K:BB in 13 innings.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Reassigned to minors
Oswalt was reassigned to minor-league camp Wednesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Oswalt started Wednesday's spring game against the Cardinals and allowed one run on two hits and no walks while striking out three over four innings as he was charged with the loss. The right-hander was competing for a back-end rotation spot ahead of the regular season, but it appears as though Joey Lucchesi will serve as the Mets' fifth starter after Oswalt and Jordan Yamamoto were sent down.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Outrighted to Triple-A
Oswalt cleared waivers Tuesday and was outrighted to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.
Oswalt hasn't shown much in his 84.1 career innings at the MLB level, struggling to a 6.19 ERA while striking out just 16.4 percent of opposing batters, so it's no surprise to see him pass through waivers unclaimed. He'll remain an organizational depth option for the Mets going forward.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: DFA'd by Mets
Oswalt was designated for assignment by the Mets on Wednesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
The right-hander had a 4.85 ERA and 11:2 K:BB over 13 innings for the Mets in 2020, but he won't be on the 40-man roster entering spring training. Oswalt should still be invited to New York's big-league spring training, assuming he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: With big club for finale
The Mets recalled Oswalt from their alternate training site ahead of Sunday's game against the Nationals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Oswalt is back up with the big club for the season finale against the Nationals after the Mets placed another reliever (Erasmo Ramirez) on the 10-day injured in a corresponding move. He'll give New York an option in long relief in the event starter Seth Lugo isn't able to work deep into Sunday's contest.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Sent down by Mets
Oswalt was optioned to the Mets' alternate training site Wednesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Oswalt was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Saturday and made just one appearance since returning, allowing zero runs on one hit and no walks while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning. He'll now be removed from the active roster to make room for Dellin Betances (lat) in the bullpen after he was activated from the 10-day IL in a corresponding move.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Returns from injury
Oswalt (biceps) was activated from the 10-day injured list Saturday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Oswalt missed three weeks with right biceps tendinitis. He'd recorded a mediocre 5.11 ERA in 12.1 innings prior to suffering the injury. Franklyn Kilome was sent down in a corresponding move.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: To IL with bicep tendinitis
Oswalt was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday with right bicep tendinitis, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
He had a 5.11 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 10 strikeouts in 12.1 innings this season across three appearances. Oswalt is without a timetable to return.

Mets' Corey Oswalt: Solid in Tuesday's start
Oswalt didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Marlins, allowing two runs on five hits over 4.1 innings. He struck out four without walking a batter.
Pushed into the starting rotation at the last minute with David Peterson (shoulder) unavailable, the right-hander gave a beleaguered Mets staff 74 pitches (44 strikes) before getting the hook. Oswalt will likely remain in the rotation until Peterson or Michael Wacha (shoulder) return, and he could stick around even past that point if he pitches better than Robert Gsellman. Oswalt faces a tough task in his next outing Sunday, at home against the Yankees.
