Jose Butto To Work As Reliever, Tylor Megill Stretching Out As Starter
                
        
        New York Mets right-hander Jose  Butto will be a reliever this year, according to manager Carlos  Mendoza. Meanwhile, Mendoza said that right-hander Tylor  Megill will be stretched out as a starter during spring training. Butto went 7-3 with a nice .255 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, his first three career saves and a 79:38 K:BB in 74 innings over 30 appearances (seven starts) for the Mets in 2024. The 26-year-old was primarily a starter in the minors, but he had a 2.00 ERA down the stretch as a reliever last year and will stick in a late-inning setup role for the Mets. A high walk rate will make it hard for Butto to improve on his numbers last year. Megill, 29, will be in the mix for a rotation spot early in 2025 with the Mets planning to use a six-man rotation. He'll be competing with the likes of David  Peterson, Griffin  Canning and Paul  Blackburn.
