Mets place Danny Young on injured list with elbow sprain

NEW YORK -- The Mets placed Danny Young on the injured list with an elbow sprain Wednesday, leaving their bullpen without a left-hander for the time being after it began the season with two.

The move is retroactive to Sunday.

The Mets called up veteran right-hander Chris Devenski to replace Young on the active roster.

Young's setback comes three days after lefty A.J. Minter landed on the injured list with a lat strain. On Tuesday, manager Carlos Mendoza disclosed that Minter is contemplating season-ending surgery due to the "pretty significant" injury.
