The New York Mets have traded right-handed reliever Huascar Brazoban to the Chicago White Sox, continuing their player sell-off ahead of the trade deadline. The deal was reported early Monday morning.
In exchange for Brazoban, the Mets will receive Double-A right-handed pitcher Gabe Davis and Triple-A right-handed pitcher Zach Franklin. Brazoban, who was 5-2 with a 2.56 ERA this season, becomes the latest bullpen piece to be moved by the Mets.
The team had previously traded starter Freddy Peralta to the Tampa Bay Rays and reliever A.J. Minter to the Minnesota Twins. The trade deadline for MLB teams is set for Monday at 6 p.m. Eastern Time.
