Mets Call up Reliever After Trade Deadline Fire Sale

The New York Mets have called up relief pitcher Jefry Yan to their major league roster after their busy 2026 MLB Trade Deadline.

The New York Mets made a significant splash at the 2026 MLB Trade Deadline by offloading several relievers from their bullpen. Among those affected were Luke Weaver, A.J. Minter, Brooks Raley, and Huascar Brazoban. This wholesale trade has created an opening for one of the Mets' minor leaguers to make their debut at the major league level.

According to insider Francys Romero, the Mets have opted to call up relief pitcher Jefry Yan, who has yet to make his major league debut. The 29-year-old left-hander has proven himself in the minor leagues, with a 2-1 record, 3.00 ERA, and 32 strikeouts in 14 appearances with Triple-A Syracuse. Yan has also shown promise at Double-A Binghamton, posting a 3.71 ERA and 45 strikeouts in 21 games.

This call-up presents an opportunity for Yan to showcase his skills and make a significant impact for the National League East team. It remains to be seen how well he will perform during his stint with the Mets.
