Mets' Bullpen Crisis: Young Joins Minter on Injured List
The Mets' bullpen faces challenges as Danny Young is placed on the injured list.

The Mets have hit another snag in their bullpen. Danny Young was placed on the injured list with an elbow sprain on Wednesday. This comes just three days after fellow left reliever A.J. Minter landed on the IL. The team called up veteran right-hander Chris Devenski to replace Young. Manager Carlos Mendoza disclosed that Minter is considering season-ending surgery. Without left-handed relievers, the Mets may face platoon disadvantages. But Mendoza is confident that the team's depth will hold up.
Manager's Comment: 'Guys will step up,' Mendoza said before the injury was revealed.
