The New York Mets have their starting catcher back as they activated Francisco Alvarez off the 10-day injured list on Tuesday.
In a corresponding move, they designated veteran catcher Tomas Nido for assignment.
Upon his placement on the IL, the Mets brought back Nido as a secondary catching option behind Omar Narvaez, who was originally brought in prior to last season as a starting-catching option while Alvarez completed the final steps of his development.
Torrens has been a revelation in his two-week spell in Queens. In six games (16 ABs), he was batting .313 with a 1.139 OPS, two home runs, and four RBI.
