The New York Mets have signed left-handed reliever Danny Young to a minor league deal. Young, who has previous experience with the Mariners and Braves, will be in big league camp this spring and could earn an $825K salary in the majors. The 29-year-old had a strong showing with the Braves but missed most of the 2023 season due to a hip injury. The Mets are seeking bullpen help and have been specifically focused on adding left-handed depth.
The Atlanta Braves have recalled left-hander Jared Shuster from Gwinnett to start Tuesday's game against the Texas Rangers, while optioning Danny Young back to Gwinnett. Shuster struggled in his previous two starts with the Braves, allowing 12 hits and eight runs in 8 2/3 innings, but has since improved with a 3.28 ERA in five starts at Gwinnett. The Braves have been using bullpen games to fill gaps created by injuries, but will need Shuster and other pitchers to step up when needed.
The Atlanta Braves have placed Max Fried on the 15-day injured list with a left forearm strain. Danny Young has been recalled to take Fried's spot on the active roster. Fried will shut it down for a while before rebuilding arm strength, and this won't be a short-term IL visit. The Braves' rotation is already without Kyle Wright, and there is no indication of how they will handle Wednesday's start.
Michael Harris is set to begin a rehab assignment with the Gwinnett Stripers after suffering a lower back sprain on April 6, while Joe Jimenez has been placed on the paternity list and left-hander Danny Young was recalled to take his spot on the active roster. Jimenez has allowed two earned runs in eight innings with 10 strikeouts and two walks, while Young has appeared in four games and allowed one run over 3 2/3 innings.
The Atlanta Braves have selected the contract of left-hander Danny Young from Triple-A and designated right-hander Seth Elledge for assignment to open up a 40-man roster space. Young will provide bullpen depth while Kyle Wright is on the injured list. Elledge had signed a minor league deal with Atlanta in March 2022 and spent all of last season at Triple-A.
The Atlanta Braves have optioned Jared Shuster to Gwinnett and selected the contract of Danny Young for their bullpen. Seth Elledge was designated for assignment to make room for Young on the active roster. Shuster struggled with his command in Friday's start, allowing six hits, four walks, and four runs in four innings. Young appeared in one game for the Braves in 2022 and re-signed on a minor league deal during the offseason.
