The New York Mets have just added a new left-handed reliever to their roster, with the team calling up Tyler Jay according to MLB.com’s Anthony DiComo. Jay is not currently on the 40-man roster, so the Mets will need to make a corresponding move to accommodate his addition to the team.

The Mets’ bullpen has seen some recent changes, with Michael Tonkin and Yohan Ramirez – both Opening Day members – being designated for assignment. With Nunez unavailable to pitch after his workload on Tuesday, the Mets needed fresh arms in the bullpen and are turning to Jay to fill that role.
