White Sox acquire Huascar Brazobán for RHPs Gabe Davis & Zach Franklin

This is actually quite good. He's 36, but under control for 3 more years (debuted at 32). Solid numbers and great underlying data. Soft contact machine with tons of grounders

What are the Mets thinking lol

We must have our signs on another catcher or I feel we would have expanded this to include Torrens.

Perhaps the same with Holmes.

More moves be a comin….

Interesting philosophical question as far as whether it matters that the 36 year old has 3 years of team control.

I wonder if Getz is planning to trade a reliever or two? Now, you have these as your high leverage options:

  • Taylor

  • Newcomb

  • Brazoban

  • Hicks

  • Hudson

And some combination of these as more of your middle relief and/or mop-up types:

  • Murphy

  • Richards

  • Fedde

  • Schweitzer

One of these has to go (probably Schweitzer for now), but you'd think McDougal and/or H. Smith will also be up at some point in August. It could make sense to try and flip Murphy

Sox really needed a trustworthy righty. And I wouldn't want to put myself in a position in which I might need to get important innings from McDougal

All managers love their reliable veterans down the stretch

Huascar Brazoban Contract, Salary & Cap Hit 2026 | Spotrac

Huascar Brazoban signed a 1 year, $1,050,000 contract with the New York Mets with an average annual salary of $1,050,000.

Only owed $400,000 for remainder of season, and then three arbitration years

He'll be collecting Social Security before he becomes a free agent.

Considering I don't trust our current pitching development to do anything with Gabe Davis, hard to poke holes in this one.

He had one really bad outing against ATL where he gave up a slam. Take out that blip and it's 10 ER total in 52.1 IP, good for a 1.72 ERA.

Looks like he's opened a few times too, in case that's ever asked of him here.

I like Gabe Davis, but this seems like a solid get.

Minimal postseason experience (1 scoreless inning in 2023 with Miami) but he pitched well on a big stage in the WBC:

Good get to replace Dominguez in the bullpen. Now we can get rid of one of the lefties

Leaves us with some great options in the 6th-9th innings

White Sox determined to increase their Dominican count, haha.

+1 for now with Dominguez gone and Castillo added

We’re hoping Brazo can hold his form for the next few years and the Mets are hoping they can get a starter out of Davis with a floor of having a lights out reliever at a similar profile for twice as long.

I can dig it.

Tyler Stephenson and Ace like reclamation project come on down, you’re next!

I really like this move. Back end of the pen just got a lot better.

Has primarily been used in the 6th, z7th, and 8th - at times going two innings. Often enters with inherited runners and strands them more than 65% of the time.

Lately he has been better than that, allowing inherited runners to score only on one occasion for the entire month of July.

This appears to be a great trade. Sucks that he’s so old for the additional 3 years of control, but the cost is seemingly so inconsequential that it doesn’t matter if he falls apart soon.

Brazoban was 5-2 with a 2.56 ERA this season.

The right-hander was in his third season with the Mets, after being acquired from the Marlins in July 2024.

He went 10-5 with a 3.42 ERA in 117 appearances as a Met, including nine as an opener.
