Brandon Waddell’s first major league appearance in almost four years was a rousing success

APRIL 30

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

Impact It will be the second opener assignment this season for Brazoban, who tossed a scoreless inning earlier this month against the Twins as an opener. He'll be followed Wednesday by Brandon Waddell in bulk relief.

Soto hits 2nd homer and Mets top lowly Twins 5-1

Juan Soto hit his first home run since the opening weekend of the season and the New York Mets beat the slumping Minnesota Twins 5-1

APRIL 15

Nabs first career save 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.

Impact 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.

Alonso hits tying homer and Mets edge Marlins 6-5 in 11 innings

Pete Alonso launched a three-run homer that tied the score with two outs in the eighth inning and the New York Mets scored twice in the 11th to beat the Miami Marlins 6-5

APRIL 3

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

Impact 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.

MARCH 26 • ROTOWIRE

Quick return to majors The Mets recalled Brazoban from Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday.

Impact 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.

AUGUST 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Syracuse The Mets optioned Brazoban to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Brazoban is the roster casualty following the return of Dedniel Nunez (forearm) from the injured list. Since being traded from Miami to New York in July, Brazoban has surrendered seven earned runs in only 10 innings -- a stark contrast in performance from the 2.93 ERA he posted in 30.2 frames with the Marlins.

Optioned to Syracuse The Mets optioned Brazoban to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Brazoban will act as the Mets' roster casualty following the return of Dedniel Nunez (forearm) from the injured list. Since being traded from Miami to New York in July, Brazoban has surrendered seven earned runs in only 10 innings -- a stark contrast in performance from the 2.93 ERA he posted in 30.2 frames with the Marlins.

AUGUST 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to Queens The Mets acquired Brazoban from the Marlins on Tuesday in exchange for outfield prospect Wilfredo Lara, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

Impact Brazoban had primarily worked in middle relief for Miami this season and pitched well with a 2.93 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 34:11 K:BB over 30.2 innings. The right-hander will likely fill a similar role for the Mets.

JULY 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Might get chance to close Brazoban is a candidate to step into the closer role for the Marlins in the event Tanner Scott gets traded, Kaushik Sampath of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Andrew Nardi is viewed as the top option to replace Scott, especially with A.J. Puk having been shipped to the Diamondbacks, but Brazoban might also be a factor in the ninth inning. The right-hander missed the beginning of the season due to visa issues, but since making his 2024 debut at the beginning of June he has posted a 3.14 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 31:11 K:BB through 28.2 innings. He's taken things to another level over the last month or so, giving up zero earned runs over his last eight games with a 0.79 WHIP and 16:2 K:BB in 12.2 innings. Brazoban hasn't seen much high-leverage work this season, however, managing only one hold and one win in 18 appearances.

JULY 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Collects first hold Brazoban struck out one in a scoreless two-thirds of an inning Tuesday to record his first hold of the season in a win over the Royals.

Impact The 34-year-old right-hander didn't get a chance to break camp on the 26-man roster due to visa issues, but Brazoban has looked good since joining the Marlins at the end of May. Through nine appearances and 15.1 innings, he's posted a 2.93 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 14:9 K:BB, and he may be working his way into a higher-leverage role.

JUNE 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns from IL The Marlins reinstated Brazoban (hamstring/hip) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Brazoban has been on the injured list since Aug. 14 due to a strained left hamstring and also was battling a left hip impingement. He gave up three runs over 2.2 innings during his rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville and will serve as a bullpen depth piece as Miami fights for a playoff spot. Tanner Scott was placed on the paternity list in a corresponding move.
