Perez was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Perez was dealt from the Pirates to the Mets at the end of July, but this will be his first opportunity to debut with his new club. He slashed .150/.209/.318 with six homers, 11 RBI and one stolen base through 39 games with Pittsburgh prior to the trade. Perez figures to serve as the backup catcher after Tomas Nido was placed on the COVID-19 injured list earlier in the day.
