The Mets selected Brujan's contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday. The addition of Brujan gives the Mets another option at shortstop beyond Bo Bichette after Ronny Mauricio (thumb) joined Francisco Lindor (calf) on the 10-day injured list Sunday. Though Bichette has played almost exclusively at third base this season, he has plenty of experience at shortstop and will start at the position Sunday in Anaheim. If the Mets are comfortable enough with Bichette's defense at shortstop, Brujan will fill a utility role while he's up in the majors and won't be in store for regular reps.

Vidal Bruján: Breaking News
Sent outright to Triple-A
The Mets outrighted Brujan to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. He's no longer on the 40-man roster, but Brujan will remain in the organization after clearing waivers. The utility player has managed just a .199/.267/.276 batting line across parts of five seasons at the major-league level.
Scrubbed from 40-man roster
The Mets designated Brujan for assignment Wednesday. Brujan got on base at a .400 clip this spring, but that wasn't enough to win a reserve role in New York. The utility player has bounced around to multiple organization and has yet to establish himself at the big-league level, sporting a .199/.267/.276 batting line across parts of five seasons.
