Huascar

Brazobán

Sean Manaea will likely again function as a bulk guy after doing a great job Monday against the Mariners. Brazobán thus far has allowed four runs over six innings in five appearances as an opener.

Tong will take the ball after opener Huascar Brazobán on Wednesday night at Citi Field. The 22-year-old top prospect tossed three hitless innings with a pair of strikeouts in his season debut against the Marlins last Friday. There’s some clear streaming appeal in deeper mixed leagues based on his strikeout upside, especially against a Reds lineup that has been fairly pedestrian this season.

Brazobán is 36, but he was only eligible for arbitration for the first time as a Super Two player. Despite spending some time in the minors, he had a 3.57 ERA in 63 innings for the Mets last season. He still has one option year left, so he could bounce back and forth again.

With Reed Garrett on the IL and Sean Manaea out on paternity, the Mets needed another bullpen arm. They’ll turn to Brazobán, who has a 3.67 ERA in 56 1/3 innings out of the Mets bullpen this season.

Brazobán heads back to the minors as New York continues to re-shuffle its bullpen mix. The 35-year-old righty has posted a respectable 3.67 ERA across 56 1/3 innings over 47 appearances at the highest level this season.

Brazobán will rejoin the bullpen after 15 days in Triple-A. He has a 3.91 ERA in 53 innings for the Mets this season.

Brazoban underwent an MRI on Wednesday that didn’t reveal any structural damage in his oblique area, so the Mets have officially shipped him back to the minors to bring in a fresh arm.

Brazobán is going to be off the roster regardless of the results of the imaging; the Mets have already recalled Kevin Herget to take his spot on the roster. The question is whether it’s an option to Syracuse of a 15-day injured list sint, and that will be determined in large part by that testing.

Brazobán returns to New York’s relief mix with Frankie Montas hitting the shelf with a UCL injury. The 35-year-old righty has posted a serviceable 3.83 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 51/26 K/BB ratio across 51 2/3 innings (44 appearances, three starts).

Brazobán heads back to the minors after recording only two outs during Monday’s relief appearance against the Padres. The 35-year-old righty has pitched well this season overall with a respectable 3.83 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 51/26 K/BB ratio across 51 2/3 innings (44 appearances, three starts). He’ll likely return at some point in August.
