The New York Mets have added a veteran pitcher to their depth.
According to MLB.com's transactions tracker, the Mets have signed relief pitcher Chris Devenski to a minor league contract. In addition, the 6-foot-3 righty has been assigned to Triple-A Syracuse.
Devenski joining the Mets organization on this minor league deal comes a few days after he elected free agency following being outrighted by the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Devenski appeared in three games this season with the Pirates, where he allowed two earned runs on five hits in 2.1 innings pitched. He also struck out three batters with the National League Central club this season.
Devenski is a player who the Mets are already familiar with. This is because he appeared in 13 games for them during the 2025 season, where he posted a 0-0 record, a 2.16 ERA, and 14 strikeouts.
Overall, there is no harm in the Mets reuniting with Devenski on this minor league deal. He will provide them with another veteran pitcher for their Triple-A affiliate and a potential call-up candidate if he impresses.
In 319 career MLB games over 11 seasons, Devenski has posted a 27-22 record, a 3.93 ERA, eight saves, and 432 strikeouts. He was also an All-Star during the 2017 season when he was a member of the Houston Astros.
