Mets Recall Kevin Herget, Designate Richard Lovelady, Outright Chris Devenski

The transactions underscore the Mets' reliance on shuttle relievers to preserve bullpen flexibility.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - APRIL 04: A logo on the seats is seen before the home opener between the New York Mets and the Toronto Blue Jays at Citi Field on April 04, 2025 in the Flushing neighborhood of the Queens borough of New York City.

Overview

  • New York made the moves before Thursday’s series finale in Chicago as it manages short-term bullpen needs.
  • Kevin Herget returns from Triple-A after posting a 3.00 ERA over 12.0 major-league innings this season, with extended work in Syracuse.
  • Richard Lovelady was designated for assignment following uneven results across 11.2 MLB innings this year for the Mets and Blue Jays.
  • Chris Devenski was outrighted to Triple-A Syracuse in what the team characterized as a procedural step with Syracuse’s season complete.
  • All three pitchers have been frequent call-ups this year, reflecting a continued late-season pattern of bullpen roster churn.
