MILWAUKEE — Max Kranick didn't pitch an inning for the New York Mets in the regular season and hasn't appeared in any major league game since May 2022.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said the Mets needed someone who could provide length out of the bullpen since Tylor Megill wouldn't be available after throwing 5 2/3 innings in the opening game of a Monday doubleheader.
