Mets Recall Acuña, Add Warren for Doubleheader

The New York Mets have recalled 23-year-old infielder Luisangel Acuña from Triple-A Syracuse ahead of a doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles, designating veteran outfielder Travis Jankowski for assignment. Acuña, who has played 65 games for the Mets this season, brings speed, defensive versatility, and late-game utility, with experience at second base, shortstop, third base, and center field. In his recent 12-game stint at Triple-A, he hit .289 with four RBIs and four stolen bases. Mets officials say Acuña's development is progressing, and his speed and versatility could be valuable as the team enters a key stretch. The move highlights the Mets' focus on injecting upside and evaluating Acuña's long-term fit. Additionally, right-handed pitcher Austin Warren was added as the 27th man for the doubleheader.
