Mets' Brooks Raley: Moves to 60-day IL
The Mets transferred Raley (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.
One month ago, Raley underwent season-ending Tommy John surgery with an internal brace augmentation, so his move to the 60-day IL was merely procedural. As a result of the transaction, the Mets were able to open up a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Matt Festa, who was called up from Triple-A Syracuse ahead of Sunday's game against the Astros.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Undergoes UCL repair
Raley (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery with an internal brace augmentation Wednesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
While the Mets didn't list a timetable for Raley's return, the timing of the operation would seem to point to him being out until the second half of the 2025 season. Raley made just eight appearances in 2024, collecting a 9:3 K:BB across seven scoreless innings.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Slated for Tommy John surgery
Raley (elbow) is scheduled to undergo season-ending Tommy John next week, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Raley was diagnosed with a strained UCL in his left elbow last Wednesday, and although manager Carlos Mendoza had said the lefty's UCL was healing, Raley will elect to undergo season-ending surgery. The 35-year-old will finish the season with a 9:3 K:BB across seven scoreless innings. Given the timing of his surgery, Raley is likely to remain sidelined through the first half of the 2025 season.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Diagnosed with UCL strain
Manager Carlos Mendoza said Wednesday that Raley was diagnosed with a UCL strain in his left elbow after undergoing further imaging, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
Mendoza noted that Raley's UCL is healing, but the Mets will shut him down for two weeks before re-evaluating him, at which point the team will determine next steps. The left-hander has been on the injured list since April 21 and was initially expected to be activated after the 15-day minimum, but he hasn't made any significant progress toward a return to throwing.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Getting second opinion
Manager Carlos Mendoza said Friday that Raley (elbow) is "not close" to throwing and will be seeing another doctor, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
Raley hasn't received much good news since being placed on the 15-day IL on April 21, initially being expected to return as soon as eligible before having his return date extended. Mendoza said May 2 that they'd be taking it slow with Raley, as it seems the inflammation in Raley's throwing elbow isn't healing as expected. Raley will see orthopedic surgeon Dr. Keith Meister next week and is still weighing all options, including Tommy John surgery or internal brace surgery, but also rest/rehab, per Anthony DiComo of MLB.com.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Needs more recovery time
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Thursday that Raley (elbow) is no longer on track to return from the 15-day injured list when first eligible Sunday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. "We're going to take it slow [with Raley]," Mendoza said.
Raley was placed on the shelf April 21 with left elbow inflammation, and while Mendoza didn't indicate that the southpaw has experienced any setbacks since being shut down, the left-hander doesn't seem to be progressing as quickly as anticipated, either. He'll be sent in for further imaging in the coming days as a precaution, and he could start ramping up his throwing program thereafter. Raley was one of the Mets' top setup men in 2023 and had gotten off to a strong start to 2024 before landing on the IL, striking out nine over seven scoreless innings while allowing just five baserunners and collecting four holds and one win.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Expected to miss minimum time
Raley (elbow) had an MRI on Sunday, which revealed no structural damage in his left elbow, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Raley was placed on the 15-day injured list with left elbow inflammation Sunday, but manager Carlos Mendoza believes he's likely to miss the minimum two weeks following the MRI results. The Mets appear to have dodged the worst with their impressive left-hander.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Out with elbow inflammation
Raley was placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday with left elbow inflammation, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
It's unclear when Raley suffered the injury, but he last pitched Friday and delivered a scoreless two-thirds of an inning. The left-hander landed on the shelf with a similar injury last April and missed just the minimum 15 days, though it's unclear how long he's expected to be out this time around.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Nabs win Sunday
Raley (1-0) picked up the win Sunday against the Royals, striking out two in a perfect eighth inning.
Jose Butto and Cole Ragans posted goose eggs for six innings before turning things over to their bullpens, and Raley was in the right place at the right time as the Mets broke the scoreless tie with two runs in the bottom of the eighth. The 35-year-old southpaw has begun the season with six straight scoreless appearances of his own, delivering a 0.00 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 6:3 K:BB through 5.1 innings along with three holds as the primary setup man to Edwin Diaz.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Collects third hold
Raley walked two in a scoreless seventh inning Sunday to record his third hold of the season in a win over the Reds.
The southpaw has been one of the few bright spots for the Mets to begin the season. Raley has posted a 0.00 ERA and 4:3 K:BB through his first 4.1 innings, picking up holds in all three of his team's wins. The 35-year-old racked up a career-high 25 holds in 2023, and he's well on his way to matching or topping that number this year.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Looking sharp this spring
Raley struck out the side in a perfect inning of relief during Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Nationals.
The journeyman southpaw played for five different MLB teams over the prior five seasons, but Raley may have found a home in the Mets' bullpen. After racking up a career-high 25 holds and 66 appearances in 2023 with a 2.80 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 61:25 K:BB over 54.2 innings, he's come into camp and fired three scoreless outings with a 5:0 K:BB. He'll compete for high-leverage work from the left side with Jake Diekman, as setup men in front of closer Edwin Diaz (personal).

Mets' Brooks Raley: Team exercises option
The Mets exercised Raley's $6.5 million option for 2024 on Friday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
The alternative would've been to pay him a $1.25 million buyout, but retaining the southpaw was an easy call on the team's part. Raley had a fine 2023 campaign, posting a 2.80 ERA and 61:25 K:BB over 54.2 innings. He's slated for setup duties in 2024 as Edwin Diaz makes his return from knee surgery.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Blows save, takes loss
Raley (0-2) blew the save and took the loss in Tuesday's 7-6 loss against the Royals. He allowed three runs (two earned) on two hits and didn't record a strikeout over one-third of an inning.
After handling ninth-inning duties in the Mets' last three contests, Raley took over in the 10th after Drew Smith was handed the ball for the ninth frame and turned in a scoreless inning. Entering the contest with a two-run lead, Raley was unable to secure the win, allowing back-to-back hits to tie the game before being pulled. With the Mets' closing job seemingly wide open following the departure of David Robertson, Tuesday's outing definitely won't help Raley's chances at earning more save chances.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Collects save No. 2
Raley picked up the save Sunday against the Nationals. He allowed one walk and struck out three over a scoreless inning.
For the third straight night, Raley was tasked with ninth-inning duties and managed to convert for his second save of the season Sunday. The southpaw looks to have the jump on the closer role following the trade of David Robertson and has turned in three straight scoreless outings for the Mets. Though it's likely Raley will have a short leash considering Adam Ottavino and Drew Smith each saw save opportunities earlier in the year, it appears to be Raley's job to lose. Through 46 appearances (38 innings), Raley boasts a 2.37 ERA and a 43:18 K:BB.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Steps in to notch save
Raley earned a save against the Nationals on Thursday, issuing one walk and striking out one batter in a scoreless inning.
David Robertson entered the day as the Mets' closer and even warmed up in the bullpen while New York rallied in the eighth inning, but the righty reliever didn't get a chance to pitch following a lengthy rain delay. As it turns out, Robertson ended up being traded to Miami, so Raley's save conversion may be a sign that he'll get more ninth-inning opportunities moving forward. Raley has worked primarily in a setup role this season with 19 holds against just two saves, though he did notch six saves with the Rays last season. Adam Ottavino has finished games at times for the Mets this year -- he has six saves in seven chances -- and figures to be a prominent factor in the team's new closer picture as well.

Mets' Brooks Raley: Collects 15th hold
Raley struck out the only two batters he faced Friday to record his 15th hold of the season in a loss to the Giants.
The southpaw fired six of eight pitches for strikes as he rung up Casey Schmitt and LaMonte Wade for the final two outs of the seventh inning, but David Robertson coughed up the lead in the eighth. Raley is third in the NL in holds behind Tyler Rogers' 20 and Steven Wilson's 16 despite missing a couple weeks in May with a sore elbow, bolstering that production with a 2.51 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 31:10 K:BB through 28.2 innings.
