The Mets optioned RHP Ruddy Lugo to Triple-A New Orleans.

The Mets claimed Lugo off of waivers from the A’s in late January.

In 4.1 innings through five appearances this spring with the Mets, Lugo allowed two runs, struck out five batters and gave up five hits and two walks.

Last season, he was 6-0 with a 5.40 ERA in 38 games for the A’s and Tampa Bay Rays.
