After trading Luisangel Acuña as part of a package for Luis Robert Jr., the Mets acquired utility infielder Vidal Brujan from the Twins on Thursday in exchange for cash for infield depth.
The 27-year-old Brujan played for three teams in 2025, combining for a .616 OPS in 60 games split among the Cubs, Orioles and Braves.
To open up a spot on the 40-man roster for Brujan, left-hander Richard Lovelady was designated for assignment.

Brujan was selected off waivers by the Twins from Atlanta a week ago and must be sent through waivers in order to be sent back to the minors.
He has played in parts of five major league seasons and appeared in 102 games with the Marlins in 2024.
