Mets Ink Career Minor League Arm For Depth

The New York Mets have signed right-hander Bryce Conley to a minor league deal. 

The 31-year-old was originally drafted in 2017 by the Oakland Athletics in the 22nd round. Making it as far as Triple-AAA numerous times, Conley has appeared in 160 minor league games with 76 games being starts. Overall, the hurler has a 21-33 record and has pitched to the tune of a 4.53 ERA in 491 innings. The 31-year-old righty worked mainly as a starter last season, recording 118.2 innings between Double-AA and Triple-AAA in the Nationals system.

Conley did appear in three Mexican League games in 2025, notching a 2.05 ERA in 13.1 innings. More than likely Conley will begin 2026 on a short leash in Triple-AAA. This low-risk signing also provides depth if New York needs it in the majors, as the team continues to weigh in beginning the 2026 season with a five- or six-man starting rotation. Nonetheless Conley would seem ticketed to begin the 2026 season in the minors.
