Braves sent LHP Danny Young outright to Triple-A Gwinnett.

Young will remain with Atlanta as organizational depth after passing through waivers unclaimed. The 32-year-old was designated for assignment last week after struggling to a bloated 8.03 ERA across 12 1/3 innings this season.

Braves designated LHP Danny Young for assignment.

With Ray Kerr joining the big league roster on Sunday, someone needed to get the boot from the Braves’ bullpen and unfortunately for Young, he drew the short straw this time. The 32-year-old has struggled to an 8.03 ERA, 2.27 WHIP and a 15/13 K/BB ratio across 12 1/3 innings in 16 appearances with the Braves this season.

Danny Young (elbow) will begin a minor league rehab assignment with the Braves’ Florida Complex League affiliate on Saturday.

The 32-year-old southpaw is working his way back from Tommy John surgery and is going to require a lengthy rehab stint before he’s an option to help out the Braves. Young holds a 4.01 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and a 78/25 K/BB ratio over 60 2/3 innings in his MLB career.

Braves signed LHP Danny Young to a one-year, split contract.

A split contract is an agreement in which the player will earn two different salaries depending on whether they are on the Major League Baseball roster or the Minor League Baseball roster. Young’s MLB salary would be for $925K in 2026. The left-hander pitched just 8 1/3 innings for the Mets in 2025 and had previously pitched for the Braves in 2023. In 60 2/3 MLB innings, he has a 4.01 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, and 78/25 K/BB ratio.

The Mets are planning to non-tender reliever Danny Young, according to The Athletic’s Will Sammon.

Sammon adds that Young recently began throwing and is on track to return during the first half of next season after undergoing Tommy John surgery back in May. The 31-year-old left-hander has recorded a serviceable 4.50 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 61/21 K/BB ratio across 60 2/3 innings during 63 appearances for the Mets over the past two seasons.

Mets transferred LHP Danny Young to the 60-day injured list.

Young is set to undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery. Given the timing of the procedure, he’s likely to miss a significant portion of the 2026 campaign as well. It’s a pretty significant hit to New York’s left-handed relief depth considering they basically don’t have any at the moment.
