The New York Mets have selected utility player Pablo Reyes and left-handed reliever Alex Young from Triple-A Syracuse as part of their roster expansion to 28 players. Reyes, who has experience playing multiple infield positions, had a strong offensive showing in Triple-A with a .285 batting average and 9 home runs this season. Manager Carlos Mendoza noted Reyes' versatility and potential to impact games positively, while also indicating that the organization prefers to keep prospect Luisangel Acuña playing regularly in the minors rather than having him sit on the bench. Young, who has a notable 1.29 ERA in his previous major league appearances this season, aims to bolster the Mets' bullpen. The Mets are currently 2.5 games behind the Braves for the third Wild Card spot after clinching a series victory against the White Sox. Changes to the roster may continue as the team evaluates player performance throughout September.
