The Mets recalled Yan from Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday.

He'll grab the roster spot vacated by the injured Daniel Duarte (hamstring). Yan posted a 5.68 ERA and 17:11 K:BB across 12.2 frames in an earlier stint with the big club.

The Mets placed Duarte on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a left hamstring strain.

The injury ends what has been a terrific season out of the Mets' bullpen, as Duarte holds a 2.12 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 30:7 K:BB over 29.2 innings. He is under team control for several more years and has set himself up well to be part of the Mets' bullpen in 2027.

The Mets recalled Curry from Triple-A Syracuse and will have him start Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

He'll enter the rotation as a replacement for the injured Robert Stock (fingers). All of the right-hander's eight outings for the Mets to this point have come in relief, but 13 of Curry's 15 appearances at Syracuse have been starts. He holds a 3.44 ERA and 12:8 K:BB over 18.1 frames with the big club.

Baker (3-2) picked up the win Tuesday, working a perfect ninth inning without a strikeout in a 2-1 victory over the A's.

With the game tied 1-1 and a save situation off the table at home, Baker was called in for the top of the ninth and needed just seven pitches (three strikes) to set down the 2-3-4 hitters for the A's. The right-hander then got rewarded when Junior Caminero walked it off with a solo shot. Baker has been scored upon in only one of his last nine appearances, picking up two wins and three saves during that stretch with a 1.08 ERA and 0.96 WHIP, but a lackluster 6:5 K:BB.

Perkins didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Rays, allowing one unearned run on four hits and one walk over 6.2 innings. He struck out eight.

In his longest and best performance of the season, Perkins fired 53 of 83 pitches for strikes, and the only run to cross the plate against him came as the result of a passed ball by Jonah Heim, which let Chandler Simpson scamper home from third base. Perkins has had a rough season overall, but the 26-year-old right-hander is providing some optimism for 2027 -- over his last six outings, he's produced a 2.86 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 33:16 K:BB through 28.1 innings. He's scheduled to make his next start on the road this weekend in Cleveland.

Iglesias earned his 33rd save of the season after retiring all three batters he faced in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Cubs. He did not record a strikeout.

Iglesias was handed a three-run cushion after Drake Baldwin's two-run homer in the top of the ninth, and the veteran right-hander made quick work of Chicago. He needed 15 pitches (11 strikes) to complete a perfect frame and secure Atlanta's comeback victory. Iglesias has converted 33 of his 36 save opportunities this season while posting a 2.73 ERA, and he hasn't blown a save since Aug. 7.

Pintaro (2-2) took the loss after allowing three runs (two earned) on two hits and a walk while striking out two over one inning in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to the Orioles.

Pintaro entered the game in the 11th inning in a 4-4 tie and was close to escaping the inning after striking out Pete Alonso for the second out. However, Coby Mayo drove an 0-2 pitch to deep center, where A.J. Ewing crashed into the wall trying to catch it, and the ball rolled away, allowing the 24-year-old third baseman to circle the bases for a three-run inside-the-park homer. Pintaro has given up five runs (four earned) across six outings and seven innings in September, and while he should continue to see opportunities out of the bullpen, he's not likely to pitch in many high-leverage situations going forward.

Senga was charged with a blown save after allowing one run on one hit while striking out two over one inning in Tuesday's 7-5 extra-innings loss to the Orioles.

Senga entered the ninth with New York protecting a 3-2 lead and retired the first batter before Pete Alonso crushed a 414-foot solo homer to tie the game. It was Alonso's 300th career home run and his first against the Mets after spending his first seven seasons in New York. Senga recovered to retire the next two hitters, but the damage resulted in his first blown save in eight opportunities this season. He's now given up runs in two of his last three appearances, but with Devin Williams (shoulder) still on the IL, Senga should continue to see ninth-inning opportunities for now.

Kittredge earned his 10th save of the season after allowing one unearned run on one hit over one inning in Tuesday's 7-5 extra-innings win over the Mets. He didn't record a strikeout or issue a walk.

Kittredge entered in the 11th inning protecting a three-run advantage and allowed the automatic runner to score on Bo Bichette's two-out RBI single. That brought the potential tying run to the plate, but Kittredge induced a Carson Benge flyball out to end the game. The veteran right-hander has now converted 10 saves this season, and he has lowered his ERA to 3.66. Kittredge has now thrown back-to-back scoreless outings after opening September by allowing four runs over 1.1 frames in his first two appearances of the month.

Hoppe (1-1) earned the win after allowing one unearned run on one hit while walking one and striking out one over one inning in Tuesday's 7-5 extra-innings victory over the Mets.

Hoppe entered the game in the 10th with Baltimore ahead 4-3 and surrendered a game-tying RBI double to Marcus Semien, with the automatic runner accounting for the unearned run. Hoppe prevented further damage the rest of the way, and Coby Mayo's three-run inside-the-park homer in the following frame then put Baltimore ahead for good, giving Hoppe his first win of the season. Despite the run allowed in the 10th, Hoppe continues to pitch well. He has allowed just one earned run across 12.2 innings and 16 appearances since the beginning of August for a 1.42 ERA, albeit with a 1.66 WHIP and 10:8 K:BB.
