Like so many deck chairs being rearranged on the Titanic, the Mets roster carousel continued Tuesday.

Lefty A.J. Minter and Jared Young returned from IL stints, and Eric Wagaman was called up from Triple-A Syracuse.

Gone are outfielders Tyrone Taylor (placed on the 10-day IL with a right hip flexor strain) and Nick Morabito (optioned to Syracuse) and right-hander Jonathan Pintaro (also optioned to Syracuse).

The Mets will need to make a 40-man roster move to add Wagaman, whose contract was selected from Syracuse.

Minter hasn’t pitched in the majors since April 2025, sidelined for over a year with a torn lat that required season-ending surgery.

Young — out since last month with a torn meniscus — had provided a solid left-handed bat off the bench prior to the injury, while Morabito, ranked the organization’s 11th-best prospect by MLB Pipeline, was 0-for-11 with nine strikeouts.
