The Mets are signing RHP Tyler Burch to a two-year minor league deal, according to Anthony Dicomo of MLB.com.
Burch is coming off elbow surgery, but will be ready to pitch during the 2026 season.
The 28-year-old reliever is yet to make his big-league debut.

Burch began his professional career as an undrafted free agent with the Phillies in 2019, but was traded to the Orioles for INF Freddy Galvis a few years later.
He remained in Baltimore’s system until he was scooped up by the Rockies in the Rule 5 Draft last offseason.
After missing the entire campaign to injury, though, the righty elected to hit free agency and now he lands with the Mets.
Burch has a 3.71 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, 12 saves, and 186 strikeouts in his minor league career.
