The Mets' pitching looks a bit different heading into Friday's game against the Braves.
Adrian Houser went from a New York Mets rotation spot to losing his role on the major league roster altogether., emerging late-inning reliever Dedniel Núñez was put on the 15-day injured list with a right pronator strain, and veteran Adrian Houser, acquired this offseason, was designated for assignment in a corresponding move with Senga’s activation.The Mets said that Eric Orze was recalled from Triple-A and that reliever Shintaro Fujinami, signed this offseason, was also DFA’d.
The loss of Núñez will be significant for a bullpen that had recently stabilized. In 33 1/3 innings, the 28-year-old rookie recorded a 2.43 ERA and 0.93 WHIP, forming a bridge to closer Edwin Diaz. Now,in an offseason trade. At the time, it was a bet that both players would increase the floor of the roster, even if there wasn’t a lot of upside.
With a career 4.21 ERA and ability to log innings — he has 608 2/3 in his career — it would not be a surprise to see another team claim the eight-year veteran. Houser is making $5.05 million in the last year before free agency.
