Here’s what people were saying about the news:
Will Sammon: “The Mets are promoting reliever Guillermo Zuñiga from Triple A, league sources said. The right-hander last appeared in the major leagues in 2024. The Mets had signed him to a minors deal in May. @francysromeroFR on news.”
@jrwamsey: “Zuñiga owns a 3.29 ERA with 18 K’s in 13.2 innings this year between Binghamton and Syracuse.”
@YokoYui_oshides: “Angels legend”
@thebs19: “Once again the Mets do the stupid 40 man thing with a better pitcher leaving him unable to be recalled and they end up needing an arm anyway. Look at Yan! Or Lavendar.”
