Mets' Jefry Yan: Added to 40-man roster and optioned
Rotowire
The Mets selected Yan's contract and then optioned him to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.
Yan likely had an opt-out clause in his minor-league contract, and the Mets will add him to the 40-man roster to prevent him from leaving. The lefty reliever has struck out a whopping 63 batters over 33.1 innings between Double-A Binghamton and Syracuse in 2026, though he's also issued 24 walks. Yan has never pitched in the majors.

Jefry Yan: Granted release from COL
Rotowire
Yan requested and was granted his release from his minor-league contract with the Rockies on Sunday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Yan signed a minor-league deal with the Rockies in the offseason and posted an inflated 7.28 ERA and 1.88 WHIP with 45 punchouts over 29.2 innings in 27 appearances, including a start, with Triple-A Albuquerque this year. The 28-year-old has yet to make his major-league debut, and he'll look to find another opportunity elsewhere.
