Danny Young's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Free-agent left-hander Danny Young signed a minor-league deal with the New York Mets on Friday, according to a source. Young will be invited to big-league spring training and would earn $825,000 if he's in the majors in 2024. The 29-year-old southpaw gave up one run in 11 innings pitched with two walks and 12 strikeouts with the Atlanta Braves over the last two seasons but missed most of 2023 due to hip surgery. Overall in his time in the majors, Young has a 2.45 ERA (four earned runs allowed in 14 2/3 innings) and 1.50 WHIP with four walks and 17 strikeouts in 14 2/3 innings for the Braves and Seattle Mariners over two seasons. Young will provide minor-league left-handed relief depth for the Mets to open the 2024 campaign.
