The Mets optioned Myers to Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday.
The right-hander continues to be shuttled between Triple-A and the majors, with Sunday's transaction being the fourth time he's been optioned this season and the third time in the past two weeks. Myers had a strong start to the year with a 3.25 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 22:5 K:BB across his first 15 outings, but he's now surrendered 22 runs in his past 11 appearances (10.80 ERA).

Mets' Tobias Myers: Sent packing to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Mets optioned Myers to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.
Myers was touched up for three runs on six hits over three relief innings in Sunday's loss to the Phillies, and he's collected an uninspiring 6.21 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 32:12 K:BB in 42 innings for the Mets this season. Joey Gerber was called up from Triple-A to replace Myers in the bullpen and on the 26-man active roster.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Poor showing in long relief
Rotowire
Myers didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Phillies, giving up three runs on six hits over three relief innings as the Mets fell 5-4. He struck out three without walking a batter.
After Cionel Perez worked a perfect first inning as the opener, Myers took the mound and quickly ran into trouble as the visitors piled up three runs in the third. Myers was lifted after 59 pitches (48 strikes), his biggest workload of the year, but Kodai Senga then covered the final five frames. The Mets still have a vacancy in their fifth starter spot after trading David Peterson to the Cubs, but Senga seems a more likely candidate to work in bulk relief than Myers until the team settles on a longer-term solution. Over 24 appearances (three starts) and 42 innings in the majors this season, Myers carries a 6.21 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 32:12 K:BB.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Works in relief Saturday
Rotowire
Myers struck out a batter and was charged with two earned runs on three hits over 2.1 innings of relief Saturday in the Mets' 15-3 loss to the Phillies.
Myers was called up for a start Monday in Cincinnati but recorded just four outs before being chased from the game after allowing seven runs. He'll wind up getting just one turn through the rotation before returning to a long relief role. David Peterson will move into the rotation for Sunday's series finale, with Christian Scott (hip) likely to fill that spot afterward.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Tabbed to start Monday
Rotowire
The Mets will recall Myers from Triple-A Syracuse to start Monday's game against the Reds, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
The right-hander has spent the past couple weeks with Syracuse, but he's now set to make just his third big-league start of the season. Myers has primarily worked as a reliever in the majors this season and has posted a 4.05 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 26:7 K:BB over 33.1 innings. Myers started in his most recent appearance with Syracuse on Thursday, but since he covered just 2.2 innings and 36 pitches in that outing, he'll likely handle a limited workload for the Mets on Monday.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Rocked in short start Monday
Rotowire
Myers (0-2) took the loss Monday against the Reds, allowing seven runs on four hits and three walks while striking out one over 1.1 innings.
Making his third start of the season, Myers was in trouble almost immediately. He surrendered three runs in the first inning, including a two-run homer by Eugenio Suarez, and things unraveled further in the second. After allowing three consecutive batters to reach, Myers walked JJ Bleday with the bases loaded to force home a run and was removed with one out and the bases still loaded. Reliever Jonathan Pintaro was unable to clean up the mess, allowing all three inherited runners to score as Cincinnati plated six runs in the inning. Myers has now allowed 17 runs over his last 12.2 major-league innings, ballooning his season numbers to a 5.71 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 27:10 K:BB across 34.2 innings.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Recalled prior to start Monday
Rotowire
The Mets recalled Myers from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.
Myers is slated to start Monday's series opener in Cincinnati. The righty will be pitching on three days' rest after going 2.2 innings at Syracuse last Thursday, and he has yet to last more than three frames in an appearance at any level in 2026. As a result, Myers' start Monday will be relatively short.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Optioned to Syracuse
Rotowire
The Mets optioned Myers to Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.
Myers has struggled on the mound since the start of May, posting a 6.43 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with a 10:4 K:BB over 14 innings this month. He'll head back to Triple-A to right the ship, and the Mets will replace him by selecting Cionel Perez's contract from Syracuse.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Limited workload as opener
Rotowire
Myers gave up a run on a hit and a walk in 1.1 innings Friday against the Marlins. He didn't strike out a batter.
The right-hander tossed 20 pitches (13 strikes) as the opener before exiting the mound. Myers could be headed for another turn in the rotation as an opener next Wednesday against the Reds -- rookie Jonah Tong fired three hitless, scoreless innings in relief Friday and appears ticketed for another turn as a bulk reliever or tandem option. Myers would be a likely candidate to begin that game for the Mets. On the season, the former Brewer has posted a 3.56 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 23:7 K:BB through 30.1 innings.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Set for start Friday
Rotowire
Myers will start Friday's contest on the mound versus the Marlins, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Myers will make his second start of the season, but he likely isn't stretched out enough to serve as anything more than a glorified opener. He hasn't thrown more than 25 pitches in an appearance since May 2 and has maxed out at three innings on the season. Sean Manaea, who hasn't pitched since Sunday, is available to handle multiple frames out of the bullpen, but it's not clear if the Mets intend to use him in tandem with Myers or if manager Carlos Mendoza will see how many innings he can get out of Myers before deciding how to deploy his relief options.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Could be rotation option
Rotowire
Myers might get a chance to replace Clay Holmes (fibula) in the Mets' rotation, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
The right-hander started 31 games for the Brewers over the prior two seasons before being acquired as part of the Freddy Peralta trade this winter, but Myers has been used almost exclusively out of the bullpen in 2026 and has yet to throw more than 40 pitches in an appearance, and no more than 25 in his last five outings dating back to May 6. The Mets don't have a day off until May 28, however, so they'll need to decide quickly who will plug the hole in the rotation after Holmes was struck by a comebacker Friday and fractured his right fibula. Prospects Jonah Tong and Jack Wenninger are also options, but both have struggled to find the plate on a consistent basis at Triple-A Syracuse.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Snags first career save Friday
Rotowire
Myers struck out two in a perfect 10th inning Friday to record his first save of the season in a 3-1 win over the Diamondbacks.
Devin Williams got the win with a perfect ninth inning, while Luke Weaver and Brooks Raley had also worked earlier in Friday's contest, leaving closing duties to Myers after the Mets struck for two runs in the top of the 10th. It was the right-hander's first career save, but his primary role remains long relief in a bullpen that has been leaned on heavily due to injuries and ineffectiveness in the rotation. Myers has thrown 23.2 innings over 12 appearances this season, posting a 3.42 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 18:4 K:BB.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Clean outing as opener
Rotowire
Myers gave up one hit and one walk over two scoreless innings during Sunday's loss to the Cubs. He struck out two.
Making his first start of the season as an opener in front of David Peterson, Myers tossed 16 of 28 pitches for strikes in an effective performance. The right-hander has given the Mets quality innings in 2026 after being acquired from the Brewers as a secondary piece of the Freddy Peralta trade, posting a 3.00 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 11:2 K:BB over 15 frames. Myers' fantasy value is very limited in his current role, however.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Will be utilized as opener Sunday
Rotowire
Myers will be deployed as an opener in front of bulk reliever David Peterson in Sunday's game against the Cubs, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
Though he made 31 starts for the Brewers over the past two seasons and has two three-inning relief appearances under his belt with the Mets during the current campaign, Myers doesn't look like he'll be asked to provide much length while he makes his first start of 2026. Over 13 innings in six appearances so far for his new team, he's posted a 3.46 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 9:1 K:BB.

Mets' David Peterson: Set for bulk role Sunday
Rotowire
Peterson will pitch in bulk relief behind opener Tobias Myers in Sunday's game against the Cubs, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
Myers made 31 starts for the Brewers over the past two seasons but he's maxed out at three innings and 39 pitches over his six relief appearances for the Mets in 2026. While the right-hander might provide more length than a typical opener, Peterson still appears to be in line to handle the larger share of the workload Sunday. Since tossing 5.1 shutout innings in his first start of the season March 28, Peterson has taken losses in each of his last three outings while posting a 8.79 ERA, 1.95 WHIP and 18:8 K:BB across 14.1 innings.

Mets' David Peterson: Could still pitch Sunday
Rotowire
Peterson will no longer start Sunday against the Cubs but could still pitch out of the bullpen, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
Peterson was originally scheduled to start Sunday, but Tobias Myers will instead get the nod. However, Mastracco implies that Peterson could still work in long relief to keep the Mets' rotation on schedule. Peterson has allowed 14 earned runs across his last 14.1 innings, spanning three starts, so the team could be seeking to get him back on track by slightly shifting his role.

Mets' Tobias Myers: Drawing start Sunday
Rotowire
Myers will start Sunday's game against the Cubs, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.
David Peterson was originally set to start, but he's struggled mightily across his last three outings and will be pushed back in the Mets' pitching schedule. Meanwhile, Myers has made six appearances in relief this season, but Sunday will mark his first start. While Myers has worked as a starter for long stretches of his big-league career, he hasn't covered more than three innings or 39 pitches in an outing this season, so it's unclear how deep he may be able to pitch in Sunday's game.
