The New York Mets are calling up prospect infield Luisangel Acuna from Triple-A Syracuse.

Acuna was signed by the Texas Rangers as an International Free Agent and then traded to the Mets for Max Scherzer in last year's trading deadline.

He has hit .258 with seven homers, 50 RBI's and 40 stolen bases in Triple-A this year.

Acuna will bring depth on the infield and provide much needed speed on the bases.
