The New York Mets transferred left-handed reliever Danny Young to the 60-day injured list on Sunday now that team doctors have recommended he undergo Tommy John surgery.
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters Sunday that the team is awaiting a decision from Young about the next step.
The team placed Young, 30, on the 15-day injured list on Wednesday with an elbow sprain.
In 2024, Young appeared in 42 games for the Mets and posted a 4-1 record and 4.52 ERA. He registered 48 strikeouts in just 37 2/3 innings.
This season, Young appeared in 10 games and had a 4.32 ERA with 13 strikeouts over 8 1/3 innings. His most recent appearance came April 26.
Between Young’s injury and the left lat injury suffered last week by A.J. Minter, the Mets will be without their primary left-handed relievers for a significant length of time.
Also Sunday, the Mets called up RHP Blade Tidwell from Triple-A Syracuse to make his major league debut in Game 1 on their doubleheader Sunday against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Right-hander Austin Warren was optioned to Syracuse and appointed as the 27th player for both games of the doubleheader.
