Mets acquire RHP Adrian Houser, OF Tyrone Taylor from Brewers

The New York Mets acquired right-hander Adrian Houser and outfielder Tyrone Taylor from the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday in exchange for minor-league pitching prospect Coleman Crow.

"We are excited to add Adrian and Tyrone to our team," said David Stearns, Mets president of baseball operations. "Tyrone brings a well-rounded skillset to our outfield grouping and can play all three outfield positions at a high level. Adrian is a proven major league starter who continues to add to our rotation depth and will pitch valuable innings for us this year."

Houser, 30, posted an 8-5 record with a 4.12 ERA in 23 games (21 starts) last season.

He is 31-34 with a 4.00 ERA in 129 career games (97 starts) with the Brewers.

Taylor, 29, batted .234 with 10 homers and 35 RBIs in 81 games last season with Milwaukee.

He is a career .239 hitter with 41 homers and 136 RBIs in 331 games with the Brewers.

Crow, who will turn 23 on Dec. 30, was acquired by New York on June 24 as part of the Eduardo Escobar trade with the Los Angeles Angels. He is working his way back after having Tommy John surgery this past summer and will not pitch in 2024.

Crow posted a 15-6 record with a 4.33 ERA during three minor league seasons with the Mets and Angels.
