The Mets bullpen lost another left-hander to the injured list Wednesday, as Danny Young joined A.J. Minter on the shelf.<\/p>\n
Young was diagnosed with a left elbow strain and Tommy John surgery has not been ruled out.<\/p>\n
Righty Chris Devenski was selected from Triple-A Syracuse to take Young\u2019s spot.<\/p>\n
To make room on the 40-man roster, recently signed Brooks Raley \u2014 another lefty \u2014 was transferred to the 60-day IL as he rehabs from last May\u2019s Tommy John surgery.<\/p>\n
Minter could be headed for season-ending surgery to repair a strained left lat. He went for another MRI exam on Wednesday, according to Carlos Mendoza, on recommendation from a doctor who wanted a clearer image of the injury. <\/p>\n
Even without surgery, Minter would face an extended absence.<\/p>\n
The loss of Minter and Young \u2014 who had mostly been effective after two shaky outings in the first week of the regular season \u2014 leaves the Mets without a left-hander in the bullpen.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s as bad a time as you can get,\u2019\u2019 said Young, who had not been recovering well after outings and had imaging done on Wednesday. \u201cIt\u2019s unfortunate.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mendoza expressed faith that some of the righties in his pen \u2014 including Jos\u00e9 Butt\u00f3, Reed Garrett, Huascar Brazob\u00e1n and Max Kranick \u2014 would be able to get left-handed hitters out.<\/p>\n
The 34-year-old Devenski last pitched in the majors last season with the Rays and was pitching well at Syracuse this year. He allowed two runs in the ninth in Wednesday\u2019s 4-3 loss to Arizona.<\/p>\n
After debuting a bright yellow face mask behind the plate on Wednesday, Francisco Alvarez said he had a mint version he was going to use.<\/p>\n
\u201cI like it,\u2019\u2019 Alvarez said of the flashy colors. \u201cIt\u2019s different.\u201d<\/p>\n
The catcher played his fifth game on Wednesday \u2014 and went 0-for-4 with a strikeout \u2014 after missing most of the first month of the season with a fractured left hamate bone and has a pair of extra-base hits in 23 plate appearances, as well as eight strikeouts.<\/p>\n
His power dropped a year ago from 2023, but he did get on base more last season.<\/p>\n
The Mets are hoping he becomes a more well-rounded hitter in his third full season in the majors.<\/p>\n
Brandon Nimmo was out of the lineup for a second straight game after experiencing flu-like symptoms, but he pinch hit for Luisangel Acu\u00f1a and grounded out in the eighth inning.<\/p>\n
Jeff McNeil started in left. Two of his first four hits of the season were for extra bases, as he continued the aggressive approach at the plate he displayed for much of the second half of last year.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs long as he\u2019s swinging with conviction and trying to drive the baseball, that always feels like the best version of Jeff,\u201d Mendoza said. \u201cAs opposed to flicking balls the other way. <\/p>\n
He\u2019s putting his A swing on it and getting good pitches early in counts.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sean Manaea (oblique) said he threw from 90 feet again Wednesday and is trending in the right direction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
