Ronny Mauricio has made it back to the majors.
The former top prospect is being promoted Tuesday and will join the team in Los Angeles for the second matchup of its four-game set with the Dodgers, The Post’s Joel Sherman confirmed.
While the corresponding move is not yet known, Mark Vientos appeared to tweak his hamstring during the 10th inning of Monday’s 4-3 win.
Mauricio, 24, tore his ACL in 2023 months after making his debut and did not appear in a major-league or minor-league game.
He appeared in 26 games for the Mets that year, hitting .248 with a .643 OPS while playing third base, second base and shortstop.
Mauricio been hitting well in the minors this year, posting an .892 OPS and .323 average while spending time across all three levels.
The infielder recently hit a massive homer with Triple-A Syracuse.
“He’s doing a great job. No. 1 is health and getting him back and building up the volume. We’re continuing to do that,” Met president of baseball operations David Stearns said last Friday. “Any time you see players consistently hit lasers all over the field, which is what he’s doing right now in Triple-A, you pay attention. We’re paying attention and will continue to monitor that and see where it goes.”
The Mets wanted to give Mauricio plenty of time to get his feet back under him following the injury, but Stearns previously said those plans could be altered if the major-league roster needed help.
It’s not yet known whether the Mets are demoting a player or making a move to replace Vientos, who grabbed his hamstring while attempting to run Monday night.
Both Vientos and manager Carlos Mendoza indicated they did not know yet if he would have to be sidelined.
“There aren’t specific, ‘You need to check this box. You need to check that box,’ ” Stearns said of Mauricio last week. “I think it’s more subjective. Is he comfortable playing the field regularly? Does he look right? Offensively, it sure does seem he got himself right pretty quickly, which is very impressive. He certainly has development left in his offensive game. He’s likely never going to be the type of guy with Juan Soto-type plate discipline. But there are probably some strides he can make there.”
