Mets Call up Another Top Pitching Prospect From Syracuse Amid Playoff Chase
Brandon Sproat, 24, will debut Sunday to strengthen Mets' rotation amid struggles and injury setbacks, joining young pitchers revitalizing the team during its playoff push.
- MLB Pipeline's Sam Dykstra first reported that the New York Mets will call up top pitching prospect Brandon Sproat to make his Major League debut on Sunday against the Cincinnati Reds, confirmed by ESPN and The Athletic.
- After a run of poor veteran outings, Kodai Senga hasn't completed six innings since June 6 and owns a 6.56 ERA over his last eight starts, prompting the New York Mets to seek reinforcements.
- Across 121.0 innings in 2024, Brandon Sproat posted a 4.24 ERA with 113 strikeouts for Triple-A Syracuse Mets; since June 28, he lowered his ERA to 2.44 with 70 strikeouts, capped by seven scoreless innings with nine strikeouts on Saturday.
- With postseason positioning tight, the New York Mets lead the San Francisco Giants by four games for the third NL Wild Card, and Sproat could ease bullpen strain by lengthening outings.
- The promotion continues a third wave of top prospects as Brandon Sproat joins Nolan McLean and Jonah Tong, reinforcing the Mets' youth-driven rotation in recent weeks.
