Mets Promote Chance Sisco from Triple-A Syracuse


With catcher James McCann a late scratch approximately 15 minutes prior to Tuesday’s game due to due back spasms, and backup Tomás Nido already on the 10-day inquired list, the New York Mets have called up Chance Sisco from Triple-A Syracuse, per SNY.TV.

The Mets made the move just in case McCann needs to be placed on the injured list.

Sisco, 26, owns a .658 OPS in parts of five seasons with the Baltimore Orioles. The Mets acquired him off of waivers in June. He has a .745 OPS in Triple-A this year.

The Orioles selected Sisco in the second round, 61st overall, of the 2013 MLB Draft.
