NEW YORK \u2014 The ailing New York Mets are finally bringing some pieces back into the fold, activating A.J. Minter and Jared Young from the injured list before Tuesday\u2019s game against the Cincinnati Reds, according to league sources.<\/p>\n

As of this morning, reliever Jonathan Pintaro and outfielder Nick Morabito are expected to be the corresponding moves. With Minter coming off the 60-day injured list, the Mets\u2019 40-man roster is now full.<\/p>\n

Minter has been out nearly 13 months owing to surgery on his left lat muscle. The lefty set-up man has been dearly missed in that time, and his return could boost a Mets bullpen that has lacked a full supply of late-game options. That said, Minter\u2019s velocity has been down during his two rehab stints \u2014 the first interrupted by hip discomfort \u2014 and he may have to work his way back into shape.<\/p>\n

Young was the last man to make the team back on Opening Day, and he came out of the gates as an unexpected contributor. The left-handed hitter was 7-for-20 when he tore the meniscus in his left knee in mid-April. New York\u2019s flailing offense, which has scored just six runs in the last five games, can use whatever help it can get at this point.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s an immediate need for Young, too, with outfielder Tyrone Taylor injuring his hip on Monday. The Mets placed him on the injured list<\/a> Tuesday and replaced him with infielder Eric Wagaman.<\/p>\n
