Brazoban will serve as the Mets' opening pitcher for Saturday's game against the Yankees, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
The Mets seem to like using the right-handed Brazoban as an opener ahead of left-hander David Peterson, as the two are now set to work in tandem for the third time this month. Brazoban's last opening assignment didn't go very well, as he allowed two earned runs and walked three batters over one inning against Arizona and was hit with his first loss of the season. He'll aim to bounce back Saturday in what will likely be a one-inning start.
