The Mets have selected Tommy Hunter to the major league roster, the team announced today. Hunter pitched eight scoreless innings for the Mets last season and famously also collected a hit before going down with a back injury, which required surgery and cost him the rest of the 2021 season. Hunter returned to the Mets on a minor league deal in April and has worked his way back to the big leagues. Hunter will wear number 34. To make room for Hunter on the 40-man roster, infielder Gosuke Katoh was designated for assignment.
