buffalo bisons logoThe New York Mets have signed Brian Bruney to a minor league contract. He has been assigned to the Bisons and will report to the team in the coming days.

Bruney, 28, went 1-2 with a 7.64ERA (15ER, 17.1 innings) in 19 games with the Washington Nationals earlier this year. The Nationals designated Bruney for assignment on May 17. The 6-3, 235-pounder was signed by the Milwaukee Brewers to a minor league contract on June 17. He appeared in two games, tossing 3.1 scoreless innings for Triple-A Nashville of the Pacific Coast League, before being released on June 22.

Bruney is 17-12 with 13 saves in 249 major league games with Arizona, the Yankees and Washington. He has recorded 234 strikeouts over 239.0 career innings and has held lefties to a .225 (82-365) career batting average against. Bruney went 12-3 with one save a 3.25ERA (52 earned runs/144.0 innings) with the Yankees from 2006-2009.

The native of Astoria, Ore. was 5-0 with a 3.92 ERA (17 earned runs/39.0 innings) and 36 strikeouts last year for the Yankees.

Several club records were broken in the win. Richie Wilson scored three goals, the first hat trick in club history. Daniel Stevens added two goals to notch the Blitzers first ever brace, while John Grabowski snagged two assists for the first multi-assist contest by a single players. David Thoin and Stevens became the first players to notch a goal and an assist in the same game — Stevens had two — while the four players with multi-point games set the club’s standard as well. Mike Unwin also tallied in the win.
