The Mets optioned Brazoban to Triple-A Syracuse following Monday night's game.

EDGE Analysis

Brazoban came on in relief of Frankie Montas during the fifth inning of Monday's game against the Padres, inheriting runners on second and third with one out and a 5-3 lead. While he eventually recorded the last two outs of the inning, Brazoban allowed three hits and a walk, which led to the Padres taking the lead with their sixth run of the game. In a corresponding move, the Mets re-signed Chris Devenski to the active roster Tuesday.

Brazoban struck out one in a perfect 10th inning Tuesday to record his second save of the season in a 7-6 win over the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Edwin Diaz worked the ninth to get the game to extras, and Brazoban closed things out on 11 pitches (eight strikes). His other save this season came back on April 2, and with Diaz posting dominant numbers, Brazoban's high-leverage work will mostly come in setup situations. His recent performances have left him with a shaky grasp on even that role, and since the beginning of June the veteran righty has a 9.95 ERA, 2.05 WHIP and 15:15 K:BB through 12.2 innings.

Brazoban (4-2) picked up the win Friday over the Yankees, walking one and striking out three in a scoreless seventh inning.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander has been struggling lately but came through in a big spot, preventing the Yanks from increasing a one-run lead by fanning DJ LeMahieu, Aaron Judge and Cody Bellinger before the Mets took the lead for good in the bottom of the frame. Even after that performance, Brazoban still carries a 10.97 ERA, 2.16 WHIP and 12:14 K:BB in 10.2 innings since the beginning of June, and his usage Friday came with Ryne Stanek and Edwin Diaz both unavailable after having worked two straight days. Brazoban will likely need to string together at least a few more good outings before he'll be a regular member of the high-leverage crew again -- the decision was his first win, save or hold since June 24.

Brazoban will serve as the Mets' opening pitcher for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Brewers, Manny Gomez of NJ.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brazoban isn't expected to cover more than an inning or two before giving way to right-hander Blade Tidwell, who was initially scheduled to start the second contest of the twin bill but will instead work in bulk relief. The Mets have previously used Brazoban as an opener on two other occasions this season.

Brazoban (3-0) picked up the win Wednesday over the Red Sox, striking out four and allowing one hit over 2.1 scoreless innings.

EDGE Analysis

Tylor Megill lasted just 4.2 innings as the Mets' starting pitcher, but Brazoban stepped in to complete the fifth frame and breezed through two more innings, becoming the pitcher of record when New York broke a 1-1 tie in the top of the seventh. The 35-year-old righty has had a fantastic start to the season, posting a 0.90 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 30:8 K:BB through 30 innings while adding six holds and his first career save to his three wins.

Brazoban will serve as the Mets' opening pitcher in Wednesday's game versus the Diamondbacks, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brazoban will be making his second appearance of the season as an opener after tossing a scoreless inning earlier this month against the Twins. He'll be followed Wednesday by Brandon Waddell, who is expected to serve as the Mets' bulk reliever.

Brazoban will serve as the Mets' opening pitcher in Wednesday's game against the Twins, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brazoban will be making his first career start after permitting just one run with a 9:2 K:BB over his first 11.1 innings this season out of the season. He'll likely be tasked with covering no more than three innings before giving way to Justin Hagenman, who will serve as the Mets' bulk reliever Wednesday.

Brazoban struck out one in a scoreless two-thirds of an inning to record his first save of the season in Wednesday's extra-innings win over the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander got the final two outs of the 11th inning on only seven pitches (five strikes) to collect the first save of his career. Mets closer Edwin Diaz has worked earlier in the game, as had top setup men A.J. Minter and Ryne Stanek, so Brazoban's usage doesn't suggest he's now a key high-leverage arm for New York. The 35-year-old has pitched well to begin the season, however -- through three appearances and five innings, Brazoban has a 0.00 ERA and 5:1 K:BB.

Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns said Wednesday that Brazoban will be included on the Opening Day roster, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brazoban secured one of the final available spots in the New York bullpen. The 35-year-old right-hander is likely to be used mostly in middle relief after he turned in a 3.83 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 51:25 K:BB to go with five holds across his 51.2 innings in the big leagues last season between the Marlins and Mets.

The Mets recalled Brazoban from Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander was optioned to Syracuse on Friday, but he'll rejoin the Mets just a couple days later since Paul Blackburn (hand) was placed on the injured list. Brazoban has a 3.76 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 44:18 K:BB across 40.2 innings between the Mets and Marlins this season.
