With active rosters expanding from 26 to 28 players now that it's September, the Mets have recalled outfielder Nick Morabito and right-handed relief pitcher Dylan Ross from Triple-A Syracuse.
Morabito made his major league debut in a brief stint with the Mets earlier this season. He went without a hit in 12 plate appearances over the course of the five games in which he appeared. In Syracuse, though, he's hit .254/.355/.388 with 13 home runs and 42 stolen bases in 46 attempts. That line is good for just a 96 wRC+ given the context of the International League.
Ross has yet to make his major league debut. Drafted by the Mets in the 13th round in 2022, he made his professional debut with one appearance in Single-A in 2024 before throwing 54.0 innings with a 2.17 ERA and a 3.32 across High-A, Double-A, and Triple-A stints in 2025. This year, he's thrown all but a few of his innings in Syracuse, and he has a 6.94 ERA and a 5.90 FIP in his time at that level. His walk rate—7.68 per nine or 16.8 percent—has been a significant problem, and he's given up quite a few home runs.

On September 1st, major league rosters expand to 28-players, and tomorrow the Mets are reportedly calling up right-handed pitcher Justin Hagenman and right-handed outfielder Nick Morabito.
The plan for Hagenman is to have him start on Wednesday against Tampa Bay, giving an extra day of rest to the Mets' young trio of Christian Scott, Nolan McLean, and Zac Thornton heading into the weekend series with the Giants.
Hagenman appeared in nine games for the Mets in 2025, starting one game, and did not pitch vey well, putting up a 4.48 ERA over 23.2 innings. Hagenman fractured a rib during spring training and has been on the shelf all year. Wednesday's start will be only his fourth game of the 2026 season, getting one rehab start in St. Lucie, Binghamton, and Syracuse, giving up home runs in two of those games.
Hagenman was not promised any starts beyond Wednesday, according to Gary Cohen on the Mets' broadcast.
Morabito appeared in five games for the Mets earlier this season, before A.J. Ewing emerged as the Mets' everyday center fielder, and was hitless in 11 plate appearances. At Triple-A Syracuse, Morabito hit .254/.355/.388 with 13 home runs and 42 stolen bases.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The Mets' September shakeup is not as much about contending as it is about development and preservation.
Mets interim manager Andy Green said Monday that the club would be calling up rookie outfielder Nick Morabito and right-handed pitcher Justin Hagenman when rosters across Major League Baseball expand from 26 to 28 players on Tuesday.
Those additions come after the club's roster was restructured further on Monday, with Mark Vientos reinstated from the injured list after sustaining a fractured right hand back on July 24. The Mets also saw Luis Robert Jr. claimed off waivers by the Orioles.
The Oriolies will close out $3 million on his deal for the season. They will also control the decision on his $20 million club option and potential $2 million buyout. Robert's exit opened the door for Vientos to return and an outfield ****** e to be be vacated for Morabito.
With a transformative few days for the Mets roster in the Sunshine State, here is how the Mets plan to use Morabito and Vientos, plus what Hagenman's call-up means for the Mets' rotation:

SRYACUSE 5, SCRANTON/WILKES-BARRE 4 (BOX)
Syracuse went down early in this game, trailing 2-0 after one. That 2-0 deficit held until the fourth, where a three run inning powered by a Ronny Marucio solo home run, an Eric Wagaman RBI ground out, and a run scoring throwing error gave them a lead. The RailRiders would tie it in the bottom of the frame and take a 4-3 lead in the sixth, but a two run single by Wagaman gave the Mets a 5-4 lead in the eighth inning that would stick.
SS Ronny Mauricio: 2-4, 2 R, 2B, HR (8), RBI, E (6)
DH MJ Melendez: 0-2, 2 R, 2 BB, K
LF Nick Morabito: 0-2, R, 2 BB, SB (31)
