Mets Re-Sign Chris Devenski

By Darragh McDonald | July 29, 2025 at 5:25pm CDT

The Mets announced that they have signed right-hander Chris Devenski to a one-year major league deal. Fellow righty Huascar Brazobán has been optioned to Triple-A Syracuse as the corresponding active roster move. The 40-man roster already had a vacancy.

Devenski was just removed from the Mets’ roster a week ago when he was designated for assignment. He later cleared waivers and elected free agency, but he has quickly returned to the Mets on a fresh pact.

Before losing his spot, Devenski gave the Mets 11 1/3 innings, allowing three earned runs on seven hits, three walks and hitting three opponents, striking out nine along the way. He has spent more time in Triple-A this year, tossing 25 innings with a 4.32 ERA, 17.2% strikeout rate, 4% walk rate and 50.6% ground ball rate.

The Mets have suffered a number of pitching injuries this year and have been churning through veterans at the fringe of the roster. A.J. Minter, Danny Young, Max Kranick and Dedniel Núñez have all been felled by season-ending surgeries. The club has responded by grabbing guys like Devenski, José Castillo, Génesis Cabrera, Richard Lovelady, José Ureña and others, bouncing them on and off the roster.

The Mets are reportedly setting the bullpen as a high priority ahead of Thursday’s deadline. They have already acquired Gregory Soto from the Orioles and should be making further moves in the next 48 hours. Devenski could get bumped off the roster yet again as those moves get finalized in the coming days.

      It’s been a real Jekyll and Hyde type season for the Polar Bear. He was elite with the bat in both April and June, but dreadful in both May and July. It’s all equaled out to solid yet unspectacular statistics, and it will be interesting to see how he does in the final two months of the season.

      Depending how many relievers Stearns decides to acquire, Stank-Nick has to watch his back. Guy can also self-destructs very quickly.

    Wondering if Brazo is trade bait or part of a package for another reliever?

      Brazobán’s ERA is 7.89 over his last 22 appearances. It includes some serious meltdowns, like in last night’s game, where he fell apart after failing to cover first base.

        BINGO Kabong. “Yes, and it counts” as Marv Albert would say. Dude didn’t cover 1b and it cost the Mets an important winnable game.

        See ya next ST Huascar, unless 4 bullpen arms fail or get injured between now and October. See ya. Just go away.

          I didn’t see it but he’s been run ragged the past two months. I view this in a similar vein as the Alvarez demotion. Get him out of the spotlight, clear his head, get some rest and he’ll be back up in two weeks. If he’s not it means we’ve significantly improved the bullpen at the deadline.

      Devenski hasn’t been trash when they’ve put him in there, but he’s on the edge of the roster so he’ll likely be gone when they acquire another bullpen arm or when Blackburn or Megill is ready to return.

    Big headline here is Brazobán going down. About time. He’s been awful for a month.

    Rough for Brazo, I get he hasn’t gotten it done lately but he was the go to guy the first month and a half of the season. He was great before they abused him. Injuries led to him being overused so I understand. I still believe with some rest, that he’ll get now in the minors, he should be a good low leverage reliever moving forward. That’s what he was brought over for.

    If ANY team is relying on Brazo for high leverage innings, said team will be in trouble.
