Mets Quickly Cut Former All-Star Pitcher After Terrible Performance

The New York Mets have swiftly cut former All-Star pitcher Chris Devenski from their roster following an abysmal performance. The team has announced that they have designated Devenski for assignment, moving on from the veteran pitcher who had a forgettable outing. Devenski allowed five earned runs on just four hits in a mere 0.1 innings pitched during his most recent appearance on September 9th against the Miami Marlins. Despite the Mets going on to win the game, 15-14, Devenski's performance left much to be desired.

Devenski, who signed a minor league contract with the Mets on August 11th following a release by the Pittsburgh Pirates, was called up to the MLB roster late in August. However, his struggles have now led to his sudden removal from the team. In just five games with the Mets this season, the 0-0 pitcher boasts a 13.50 ERA and has only managed two strikeouts. Prior to joining the Mets, Devenski posted a 7.71 ERA in three games for the Pirates this year.

The Mets have decided to recall another pitcher, Jack Weisenburger, from their Triple-A affiliate in Syracuse to bolster their pitching options. As teams seek additional pitching depth, the possibility of considering former All-Stars like Devenski remains open. Only time will reveal how this situation unfolds for the Mets and their future plans.
