Mets' Danny Young: Returning from Triple-A
Rotowire
The Mets recalled Young from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.
With Sean Reid-Foley (shoulder) headed for the injured list, Young will return to New York in order to make up for the loss in New York's bullpen. The 30-year-old lefty has given up one run in nine innings over his previous stints in the majors this season and will likely operate in middle relief while with the Mets.

Mets' Danny Young: Officially demoted
Rotowire
The Mets optioned Young to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.
Young was expected to be the Mets' roster casualty as a result of Edwin Diaz's (shoulder) return, and his move to Syracuse is now official. The left-hander has allowed just one run in nine innings with the Mets and also boasts a 1.59 ERA in the minors, so it's likely he rejoins New York's bullpen at some point later in the summer.

Mets' Danny Young: Likely headed to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Mets are expected to option Young to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
With Edwin Diaz (shoulder) slated to come off the injured list Thursday, Young will be pushed back to Triple-A in order to free up a roster spot. He's found quite a bit of success in the majors this season, allowing just one run in nine innings while striking out 12 batters and walking four. If he's able to sustain his strong performance in Triple-A, the 30-year-old southpaw would likely be one of the first choices to return to New York if the Mets find themselves in need of a fresh bullpen arm.

Mets' Danny Young: Nabs win in return
Rotowire
Young (2-0) picked up the win Thursday over the Diamondbacks, striking out two batters in a perfect eighth inning.
Entering the game with the score tied 2-2, Young fanned Corbin Carroll and Randal Grichuk and was rewarded when the Mets took their first and only lead of the night in the bottom of the frame. Recalled from Triple-A Syracuse earlier in the day Thursday, Young has made only three big-league appearances this season but has collected a win in two of them, and he has yet to allow an earned run in four innings with a 5:3 K:BB. Given the shambles the Mets bullpen is in, the 30-year-old southpaw could see consistent high-leverage work as long as he remains effective.

Mets' Danny Young: Recalled from Triple-A
Rotowire
The Mets recalled Young from Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.
Young will absorb the roster spot vacated by Jorge Lopez, who has been designated for assignment. The left-handed Young threw three scoreless innings with the Mets earlier this season and boasts a 1.59 ERA over 11.1 frames with Syracuse, although he's also issued 11 walks at the latter spot.

Mets' Danny Young: Returning to majors
Rotowire
The Mets will recall Young from Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
With the Mets running low on fresh bullpen arms and Jorge Lopez slated to be DFA'd, Young will return to New York for his second big-league stint of the season. The 30-year-old southpaw threw three scoreless innings across two games with the Mets in early May, and he's posted a 1.59 ERA through 11.1 innings in the minors. Although he's had success limiting runs, Young has been known to give up a fair amount of walks, so he will presumably work in middle relief once he officially gets the call to the majors.

Mets' Danny Young: Back down to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Mets optioned Young to Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.
Young was called up by the Mets on April 28. He appeared in two games, including May 2 against the Cubs when he earned his first major-league win after allowing one unearned run on two hits and a walk while striking out one batter over one frame. Young and right-hander Dedniel Nunez will head down to Triple-A Syracuse, while right-handers Christian Scott and Cole Sulser move up to the big club in corresponding moves.

Mets' Danny Young: Earns first big-league win
Rotowire
Young (1-0) earned the win in Thursday's extra-innings victory over the Cubs, allowing one unearned run on two hits and a walk. He struck out one.
Young gave up a leadoff double to Nick Madrigal in the 11th inning, allowing the free runner to score, but he'd hold the Cubs there thanks in large part to Starling Marte, who threw Madrigal out at the plate after he tried to score on a two-out single. The Mets would then walk it off in the bottom half of the frame on Francisco Lindor's two-run double. It's the first win in the majors for Young, who was also making his Mets debut. The left-hander was solid in limited action with Atlanta last season, allowing one earned run while striking out 11 in 8.1 innings. Brooks Raley (elbow) doesn't have a clear timeline for his return, so Young should have a consistent role in New York's bullpen with Jake Diekman being the team's only other left-handed option.

Rotowire
The Mets selected Young's contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday.
Fellow lefty reliever Josh Walker was optioned to Syracuse to open up room on the 26-man active roster and in the bullpen for another southpaw in Young. After failing to win a spot in the Mets' Opening Day bullpen while attending camp as a non-roster invitee, Young headed to Triple-A, where he produced a 1.08 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 11:2 K:BB across 8.1 innings before getting the call to the majors.

Young, who posted a 1.08 ERA and 1.08 WHIP over 8.1 innings out of Atlanta's bullpen in 2023, will miss out on a spot in the Mets' Opening Day bullpen. The lefty reliever is expected to head to Triple-A Syracuse to begin his tenure with the Mets.

Danny Young: Cut loose by Atlanta
Rotowire
Atlanta released Young (undisclosed) on Wednesday.
Young compiled a 1.08 ERA and 1.08 WHIP in eight relief appearances for Atlanta earlier this season before being optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on May 16. He was deactivated at Triple-A in late June and was later moved to the full-season injured list, though Atlanta hasn't disclosed the nature of his injury. Since he wasn't due to pitch again in 2023, Atlanta opted to release Young in order to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Seth Elledge, whose contract was selected from Gwinnett on Wednesday.

Braves' Danny Young: Goes on full-season IL
Rotowire
Triple-A Gwinnett transferred Young from the 7-day injured list to the full-season IL on Friday due to an unspecified injury.
Young previously logged a 1.08 ERA over eight appearances out of the Atlanta bullpen earlier this season, but he hadn't pitched with the big club since May 15 after being optioned to Gwinnett. The left-hander proceeded to make 13 appearances for Gwinnett before being deactivated July 1 with an injury that will end his season. Young still possesses a spot on Atlanta's 40-man roster, but he could be recalled and transferred to the big club's 60-day IL when room on the roster needed.

Braves' Danny Young: Joins big club as 27th man
Rotowire
Atlanta recalled Young from Triple-A Gwinnett ahead of the second game of Monday's doubleheader with the Mets.
Young will give the Atlanta bullpen a fresh arm for the second leg of the twin bill, a welcome development after the team required five relievers to cover the final four innings of a 9-8 win in Game 1. The 28-year-old lefty has previously made four appearances for Atlanta this season, giving up an earned run on three hits and no walks while striking out six over 3.2 innings.
