The Mets have announced that reliever Gerson Bautista will be recalled from Double-A Binghamton. The right-hander, who was acquired by the Mets in 2017 from the Boston Red Sox along with Stephen Nogosek and Jamie Callahan in exchange for Addison Reed, has appeared in three games for the Rumble Ponies this season, finishing two of them. He has yet to allow a run in five innings pitched, giving up two hits, walking none, and striking out eleven.
The Bautista wearing a Mets uniform is a very different pitcher that the team acquired last July at the trade deadline.
