Earns win Sunday
PArizona Diamondbacks
June 2, 2025
Mena (1-0) allowed one hit and one walk while striking out two over two scoreless innings to earn the win over the Nationals on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Mena, a starter at Triple-A Reno, was called up Sunday and earned his first MLB win. His length was needed immediately when starter Corbin Burnes (elbow) left the game after 4.2 innings. If Burnes, who will undergo in MRI on Monday, misses any starts, Ryne Nelson is the logical replacement; however, Mena could also be an option. In two relief outings for the Diamondbacks in 2025, Mena has allowed one hit and walked two while striking out seven over 5.2 scoreless frames. As a starter at Reno, Mena owns a 4.84 ERA with 52 strikeouts and 16 walks over nine outings (44.2 innings).

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance for big-league debut?
PArizona Diamondbacks
July 2, 2024
Mena could be called up to make his MLB debut Wednesday against the Dodgers after previously scheduled starter Jordan Montgomery was placed on the injured list with knee inflammation, reports Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com.
ANALYSIS
Mena's last outing for Triple-A Reno came on June 26, so he could easily be inserted into Arizona's rotation. The 21-year-old was acquired from the White Sox in February and has struggled for Reno this season with a 4.90 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 89:38 K:BB in 16 starts, so he would be a risky streaming option for fantasy managers should he get the call from the Diamondbacks.
