The Mets announced today that they have selected right-hander from Triple-A Syracuse. He takes the active roster spot of left-hander , who has been placed on the 15-day IL with a left elbow sprain, retroactive to April 27th. Left-hander has been transferred to the 60-day IL to open a 40-man spot for Devenski. The moves suddenly leaves the Mets with no lefties in the bullpen. Young and are the only lefty relievers to have pitched for the Mets this season. Minter landed on the 15-day IL due to a lat strain a few days ago and theres a chance hell . Its unclear how long Young is going to be out of action but an injury to a pitchers throwing elbow is always somewhat concerning. Raley was just officially signed yesterday. He is recovering from last Mays Tommy John surgery. The fact that the Mets have immediately placed him on the 60-day injured list suggests that they dont expect him to be with the big league club in the next two months. was added to the roster today to serve as a bulk guy behind opener tonight and may return to Triple-A after. Some of their righties have reverse splits and may be deployed as pseudo lefty specialists. For instance, lefties have a career .165/.304/.239 line against , while righties have hit .237/.314/.385 against him. Devenski, 34, fits into that category as well. Righties Bill Almon Jersey have hit .247/.305/.429 against him in his career but hes held lefties to a .211/.268/.385 slash. Hes a few years removed from his best results, however. He logged 189 innings for the Astros over 2016 and 2017 with a 2.38 earned run average, 28.2% strikeout rate and 6.4% walk rate. Since then, he has a 5.42 ERA in 211 innings for various teams. He had a 6.75 ERA with the Rays last year, which is why he had to settle for a minor league deal with the Mets coming into 2025. Hes out to a good start this year, in a sense, as he has a 1.93 ERA through 9 1/3 Triple-A innings. However, a look under the hood reveals some le s impre sive numbers. His 20% strikeout rate and 11.4% walk rate thus far are both subpar numbers. Hes been helped by a .136 batting average on balls in play and 100% strand rate. He has kept the ball on the ground at a 65.2% clip but thats never been a strength of his over a large sample. Regardle s, Devenski will come up and give the Mets a fresh bullpen arm for the time being. Tonight is their sixth of 13 straight games, leading to heavy usage of the pitching staff. Thats part of the reason why Waddell is coming up to make a spot start and Devenski will try to help the club get through as well. Photo courtesy of Reinhold Matay, Imagn Images Fred Mcgriff Jersey
