Sep 22 2023The Mets optioned Brigham to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham had allowed at least one earned run in each of his last four appearances. Peyton Battenfield is joining the Mets' bullpen in a corresponding roster move.
Aug 27 2023The Mets recalled Brigham from Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham returns as a fresh bullpen arm ahead of Sunday's series finale against the Angels. The 31-year-old right-hander has posted a 5.16 ERA and 33:13 K:BB in 29.2 major-league innings this season.
Jul 4 2023The Mets optioned Brigham to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham was charged with three earned runs while recording only one out in his last appearance Sunday versus the Giants. He holds a 5.16 ERA in 29.2 major-league innings this year.
Jun 28 2023Brigham gave up two runs on two hits and two walks in two-thirds of an inning during Tuesday's win over the Brewers. He struck out one. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The right-hander spoiled a possible combined shutout for the Mets with a shaky eighth inning that saw him throw only 14 of 29 pitches for strikes. Brigham has struggled overall in June, posting a 6.52 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 9:7 K:BB through 9.2 innings while working mainly in low-leverage spots -- his last hold was recorded June 1.
Mar 26 2023The Mets optioned Brigham to Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham was fighting for one of the final spots in the Mets' bullpen, but his 2023 campaign will instead begin in the International League. The right-hander was relatively effective in the Grapefruit League with a 3.52 ERA and 1.04 WHIP over 7.2 innings. Brigham will likely will see time with the Mets before the 2023 season comes to a conclusion.
Nov 18 2022Brigham and right-handed pitcher Elieser Hernandez were traded from the Marlins to the Mets in exchange for minor-league pitcher Franklin Sanchez on Friday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham was designated for assignment by the Marlins on Tuesday and will now head to New York after the Mets acquired him via trade. Over 16 appearances with Miami in 2022, the reliever produced a respectable 3.38 ERA and 1.33 WHIP with 28 punchouts over 24 innings. The acquisition of Brigham gives the Mets an additional veteran arm out of the bullpen for the 2023 campaign.
Nov 15 2022Brigham was designated for assignment by the Marlins on Tuesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham spent the final month of the season in the majors but won't retain his spot on Miami's 40-man roster. The 30-year-old appeared in 16 big-league games and had a 3.38 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 28:10 K:BB over 24 innings.
Sep 2 2022Brigham was recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham spent just under three weeks in the minors but will rejoin the Marlins' bullpen since active rosters have expanded to 28 players. The right-hander has posted a 3.72 ERA and 1.34 WHIP in 9.2 innings over five relief appearances for Miami this year and will likely serve mainly as a low-leverage reliever.
Sep 1 2022Brigham is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham was sent down to Jacksonville in mid-August but is set to rejoin the big-league club Friday. The 30-year-old has appeared in five MLB games this season and has given up four runs with a 10:4 K:BB over 9.2 frames.
Aug 13 2022Brigham was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville following the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against Miami, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham struck out three in two scoreless relief innings during Saturday's matinee. However, he'll head to the minors after Tommy Nance (groin) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list to serve as the opener during Saturday's nightcap.
Jul 25 2022Brigham picked up the save Sunday against the Pirates, allowing a run on one hit while striking out two and walking one over one inning. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham had his contract selected Sunday and saw his first action of the year later that day, a 10th inning relief appearance with the Marlins up 6-4. He allowed an unearned run to cross the plate, but was able to hang on for his first career save. Six Marlins relievers now have saves this season with Tanner Scott leading the pack at 12. Fantasy managers will have to pay close attention to see if Brigham shakes up the back end of Miami's bullpen.
Jul 24 2022Brigham had his contract selected by the Marlins on Sunday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham lost his spot on Miami's 40-man roster during the offseason, but he'll now receive his first look in the majors of 2022. The right-hander has a 3.96 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 62:20 K:BB across 38.2 innings for Triple-A Jacksonville this season.
Feb 17 2021The Marlins placed Brigham on the 60-day injured list Wednesday for an unspecified reason. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Marlins had previously activated Brigham from the 60-day IL on Oct. 31, after he had previously been placed on the list in early August. The Marlins shut Brigham down at around the same time that they experience a team-wide COVID-19 outbreak, but it's unclear if the right-hander tested positive. An explanation behind his latest move to the IL isn't known, but Brigham will likely miss the first two months of the 2021 campaign as a result. The transaction opens up a spot on the 40-man roster for the newly signed Adam Duvall.
Aug 4 2020Brigham was placed on the 10-day injured list, Jared Diamond of The Wall Street Journal reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham was among the 13 Marlins placed on the injured list ahead of the team's return to play after a COVID-19 outbreak. However, a specific reason for Brigham's placement on the injured list wasn't announced.
Jul 1 2020Brigham is healthy and ready for summer training camp after recovering from a biceps injury, Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The right-hander didn't pitch at all during Grapefruit League play due to the injury, but Brigham appears ready to go now. After posting a 4.46 ERA and 39:14 K:BB for the Marlins last year, he's likely headed for a low-leverage role in the bullpen, but his prior experience as a starter in the minors could allow him to emerge as one of the team's key long relievers early in the season as the members of the rotation build their stamina back up.
Jun 29 2020Marlins president of baseball operations Michael Hill said Monday that Brigham (biceps) has advanced to throwing off a mound in recent weeks, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham was unable to do any throwing in spring training while contending with a right biceps injury, but MLB's nearly four-month shutdown has provided him with extra time to recover without having to miss games. However, since he hasn't had the opportunity to step in against hitters in live batting practice or simulated games, Brigham will likely enter the Marlins' "summer camp" this week behind his fellow pitchers in the buildup process for the 60-game regular season. He'll still have around three weeks before Opening Day to fully move past the injury, so Brigham has a chance to be ready to go.
Apr 9 2020Marlins president of baseball operations Michael Hill said Thursday that Brigham (biceps) is going through a throwing progression, Andre Fernandez of The Athletic reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham was on track to open the season on the injured list after suffering a right biceps injury in early March, but that's no longer a forgone conclusion after MLB announced one week later that Opening Day would be pushed back indefinitely due to concern over the coronavirus pandemic. With the start of the season likely at least a month away, Brigham should have sufficient time to resume throwing off a mound and get his arm conditioned for game action. If he's healthy when the Marlins resume workouts, Brigham will remain in the mix for a low-leverage role out of the Miami bullpen.
Mar 4 2020Manager Don Mattingly said Wednesday that Brigham won't be available for Opening Day due to a right biceps injury, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham's injury has thus far prevented him from appearing in any Grapefruit League games, and it doesn't sound like he'll have enough time to ramp up before the Marlins begin their regular season March 26. Expect Miami to move Brigham to the 15-day injured list within the next few weeks as the team looks to narrow down its roster to 26 men.
Sep 22 2019Brigham served up a perfect ninth inning as he went one-two-three en route to recording his first-ever save in the major leagues. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Brigham has had an up-and-down year filled with recalls and options from the Marlins to Triple-A New Orleans and back. With the expanded rosters in September and the Marlins having nothing to play for, Brigham has been getting added opportunities out of the bullpen. He's given up just two runs in 9.1 innings pitched in September and may be earning manager Don Mattingly's trust to put the right-hander into higher-leverage situations. The Marlins still have seven games remaining so Brigham should get at least one more opportunity before the season winds down.

Jun 13 2017Brigham threw six scoreless innings with four strikeouts Monday for High-A Jupiter. He has a 1.53 ERA and 12:5 K:BB in three starts since returning from a shoulder injury.Brigham began the season in extended spring training after dealing with a sore shoulder. At age 25 in High-A, he's not a top prospect but could be a late bloomer if he can increase his strikeout rate (8.2 K/9 last season, 6.3 K/9 this season).
