It wasn’t until Ty Kelly’s eighth professional season that the longtime minor leaguer was finally called up to the majors.

Now, Kelly only can wonder when the next call will come.

The 28-year-old utility player, who is a guitarist and screenwriter in his spare time, was designated for assignment by the Mets on Thursday to make room on the 40-man roster for reliever Jerry Blevins, who finalized a one-year contract.

Kelly, who signed a minor league deal with the Mets on Nov. 13, 2015, made his major league debut on May 24 and appeared in a total of 39 games last season, playing every position but pitcher, catcher and shortstop. He had a .241/.352/.345 slash line in 71 plate appearances. In his last at-bat with the Mets, Kelly hit a pinch-hit single off of Madison Bumgarner in the wild-card game.

Despite his versatility in the field and at the plate — as a switch-hitter — Kelly was deemed expendable with Jose Reyes and Wilmer Flores serving as backup infielders who can also play multiple positions.

Drafted by the Orioles in the 13th round in 2009, Kelly has spent the past four seasons with five different organizations. He will play for Team Israel in the upcoming World Baseball Classic.
