The team hopes the right-hander will provide a boost to a rotation that has struggled.\n\nMcLean, 24 years old, is ranked as the third-best prospect in the Mets&#8217; farm system.\n\nIn 21 games, including 18 starts, between Double-A Binghamton and Triple-A Syracuse, he went 8-5 with a 2.45 ERA. In addition, he struck out 127 batters in 113 2\/3 innings, showcasing a five-pitch arsenal, including a fastball that reaches between 90 mph and a curveball that has been clocked in the mid-80s.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>We feel good about him going out there and giving us a chance to win Major League Baseball games.

He takes the place in the rotation of Frankie Montas, who was sent to the bullpen on Tuesday after going 3-2 with a 6.38 ERA in his first eight games, including seven starts.\n\nThe Mets&#8217; rotation ranks sixth in the majors with a 3.70 ERA, although their 591 innings are the fourth fewest. David Peterson, the scheduled starter for Wednesday night against the Atlanta Braves, is the only New York starter to have pitched at least six innings in a start since June 7.\n\nMcLean, who last pitched for Syracuse on Sunday, has pitched at least six innings in nine starts this season. He reached at least 90 pitches seven times, most recently on August 5.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Every time you can call up a prospect, whether it&#8217;s a position player or a pitcher, the expectation here is that he helps us win baseball games.<\/p><cite>Carlos Mendoza, Mets Manager<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nolan McLean Debut: Reinforcement for the Mets&#8217; Rotation Pitching prospect Nolan McLean will make his Major League debut this Saturday with the New York Mets.
