Mike Vasil couldn't break through as a starting pitcher the past couple seasons while working at Triple-A as a member of the Mets, most recently logging a 6.04 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 109:52 K:BB in 134 innings over 29 appearances for Triple-A Syracuse. The Phillies took him in the Rule 5 draft and then flipped him to the Rays for cash. Vasil will probably work as a lower-leverage reliever initially in the majors if he is not returned to the Mets. It will be worth tracking if the Rays can unlock something with the former prospect of note via a changed role and/or pitch mix.

  • White Sox's Mike Vasil: Claimed by South Siders

    The White Sox claimed Vasil off waivers from the Rays on Sunday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. Vasil was selected by the Phillies during the Rule 5 Draft this winter, but he was quickly traded to the Rays. Tampa Bay elected not to keep him, however, and Chicago then put in a waiver claim. Vasil, who had a 6.04 ERA over 134 innings at the Triple-A level in 2024, will need to spend the full season in the majors with the White Sox, or he'll have to be offered back to the Mets.

  • Phillies' Mike Vasil: Taken by division rival

    The Phillies selected Vasil with the 14th pick in the Rule 5 draft Wednesday, JJ Cooper of Baseball America reports. Vasil couldn't break through as a starting pitcher the past couple seasons while working at Triple-A as a member of the Mets, most recently logging a 6.04 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 109:52 K:BB in 134 innings over 29 appearances for Triple-A Syracuse. The Phillies will likely either utilize Vasil as a lower-leverage reliever or return him to the Mets, as he's probably not ready for an important role on a contender.

  • Mets' Mike Vasil: Could join big-league rotation

    Vasil is a candidate to replace Tylor Megill (shoulder) in the Mets' rotation, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports. The Mets are scrambling to patch multiple holes on their pitching staff right now, but Megill's spot in the rotation -- which he only held due to Kodai Senga (shoulder) also being sidelined -- is the biggest. The team also plays 13 games in 13 days beginning Friday, so while they won't need to replace Megill until April 9, multiple arms might need to join the rotation during that stretch. Vasil made his first start of the season with Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday, which puts him on turn with Megill, but he allowed four runs in 2.1 innings with a 0:4 K:BB. That poor outing might be enough to discourage the Mets from pushing Vasil to the majors too quickly. Christian Scott, Jose Butto and Joey Lucchesi are other internal rotation options, and the Mets are also said to be interested in signing Julio Teheran, who opted out of his contract with the O's in late March.

  • Mets' Mike Vasil: Excellent at Double-A

    Vasil has a 2.70 ERA, 0.70 WHIP and a 41:4 K:BB in 30 innings across six starts for Double-A Binghamton. The 6-foot-5, 225-pound righty has a bulldog mentality, going right after hitters while filling up the zone. He uses his low-to-mid-90s four-seamer up in the zone and mixes in his slider and changeup down in the zone. Vasil is arguably already the Mets' best pitching prospect thanks to this excellent start to his age-23 season.
