Triple-A Syracuse placed Pintaro on its 7-day injured list Friday due to an unspecified injury.
Pintaro may have sustained the injury in his most recent appearance Wednesday, when he covered two innings out of the bullpen in one of the Mets' doubleheader games versus the Cubs. The right-hander had been serving as the Mets' 27th man for the twin bill and was returned to Syracuse a day later.

Mets' Jonathan Pintaro: Moves up to big leagues
Rotowire
The Mets selected Pintaro's contract from Double-A Binghamton on Wednesday.
A 27-year-old righty who went undrafted out of Division II Shorter University in 2022, Pintaro made a rapid ascent to the big leagues after he had been pitching in independent ball in Montana a year ago before signing a minor-league deal with the Mets last June. He's thrived while pitching out of the rotation with Binghamton in 2025, turning in a 3.40 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 57:15 K:BB across 42.1 innings. Pintaro will work in long relief for the Mets initially, though he could garner consideration for a starting role with the big club at some point if a rotation spot opens up.
