What Mets moves did AthX cover this week?

Justin Hagenman to the 60-day IL with a fractured rib and a waiver claim for Richard Lovelady on March 14, plus broadcast news on March 19 that is not a player transaction.

Does Howie Rose retiring affect the roster?

No. It is an off-field broadcast story we covered March 19; it does not change the 40-man.

Where is Juan Soto in this article?

Soto’s contract was an offseason story; this series only covers spring roster moves in the March 14–22 window unless we publish a new post in that range.

Spring Training Roster Moves: NL East (Mar 14–22, 2026)

Quick takeaway: This is the NL East division roundup. The Mets had the most AthX news this week (injured list and a waiver claim). The Braves, Marlins, Phillies, and Nationals follow in the sections below with notes and transaction links.

Window: March 14–22, 2026. Last updated: March 22, 2026.

Atlanta Braves

AthX this week: No new March 14–22 roster story for Atlanta.

Earlier in camp: Jurickson Profar is serving a 162-game PED suspension (our write-up, March 3). That still changes who gets outfield and DH at-bats all spring.

News from other sites (sweeping cuts Mar. 20): Braves option Dodd, reassign Ritchie, León, Williams, Azócar, Gamel (FanSided / House That Hank Built, 2026).

Verify cuts: Braves transactions.

Miami Marlins

AthX this week: No new March 14–22 roster story for Miami.

What to watch: Back of the rotation, bullpen options, young infield reps. Use Marlins transactions and Marlins news.

News from other sites: Robby Snelling reassigned to minor-league camp (MLB.com).

New York Mets

Justin Hagenman (Mar 14): 60-day IL + waiver claim. Reliever Justin Hagenman (fractured rib) to the 60-day IL. Mets **claimed LHP Richard Lovelady** off waivers from the Nationals. Full story.

News from other sites (reassignments Mar. 15): Spring roster cuts: Lambert, Edwards Jr., Parada, Clifford, Ewing, and others (Amazin’ Avenue, 2026).

Howie Rose (Mar 19): Howie Rose announced 2026 as his final season. That is broadcast news, not a roster move, but it matters if you follow the club every day.

Philadelphia Phillies

AthX this week: No new March 14–22 roster story for Philadelphia.

News from other sites (spring cuts): Phillies spring training roster cuts (MSN).

What to watch: Bench, bullpen, rotation after the front five. Phillies transactions.

Washington Nationals

AthX this week: No new March 14–22 roster story for Washington. The Mets claimed Lovelady from Washington on Mar. 14. Check Nationals transactions for any follow-up move.
