Shifting to bullpen
PNew York Mets
May 3, 2024
The Mets will move Houser to the bullpen ahead of their weekend road series versus the Rays, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Houser last started Thursday against the Cubs, allowing four runs on four hits and four walks while striking out two over five innings in a no-decision. He's registering an 8.16 ERA, 1.85 WHIP and 16:20 K:BB over 28.2 innings this season and holds an 0-3 record over six starts. With top pitching prospect Christian Scott coming up from Triple-A Syracuse to make his major-league debut Saturday against the Rays and with Tylor Megill (shoulder) inching closer to a return from the 15-day injured list, Houser will shift to a relief role, at least temporarily.
