Mets lefty was placed on the injured list in April
— The Mets are holding out hope that reliever Brooks Raley will return this season. But the possibility exists that he could be done for the season.
Fortunately, the Mets have some other options in their minor league system, pitchers who are effective against left-handed batters.Drafted by the Mets in the 37th round in 2017, Walker made his MLB debut last season. While he was not impressive in 14 appearances out of the pen, allowing 11 runs in 10 innings, an 8.10 ERA, it is not representative of his performance in Triple-A Syracuse over the last two seasons.
In nine minor league seasons, left-handed hitters are batting .201 against Young. The problem is that this hasn’t translated to the majors, where in 12 appearances against lefties, batters are 9-for-27 against him . The sample is size is very small, but the Mets would probably like to see more out of the 29-year-old before handing him a regular role in the pen.Sulser was Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns’s first signing with the organization.
For a stretch of 16 games, Hartwig was an effective middle reliever for the Mets. He posted a 3.27 ERA in 22 innings of work while also striking out 18 batters. But things unraveled after that. In his final 12 appearances last season, he allowed 12 runs in 13.1 innings, a 7.43 ERA.
