Mets bullpen call-up Daniel Duarte expected to get prolonged look

Daniel Duarte is taking issues day by day.

The Mets reliever is one of several arms poised to get an prolonged look in the coming weeks — with the likes of Luke Weaver and Brooks Raley all expected to be traded by the Aug. 3 deadline.

A.J. Minter, another reliever, was traded to the Twins on Thursday night time in exchange for infield prospects Bruin Agbayani — the son of former Met Benny Agbayani — and Billy Amick.

Yet Duarte, who has yet to permit a run in 11 ¹/₃ innings of motion this season, is concentrating on what he can control following his newest call-up from Triple-A Syracuse.

“Just focus on every opportunity that I have, especially with one [minor league] option remaining,” Duarte instructed The Post before Thursday’s 4-2 win against the Marlins. “We’ll see if I’m still here by the end of the season or not. But you know, take advantage of every opportunity and get in good shape for next year.”

The 29-year-old, who exercised his upward mobility clause in May, has been quietly efficient when handed the ball in the majors.

In seven video games, he’s racked up 11 strikeouts against just two walks, to go along with a 0.00 ERA that has absolutely caught the consideration of the group he joined in December on a minor league deal.

Duarte, who did not pitch in Thursday’s win, has used his cutter more than any other pitch this yr and singled out that pitch when requested about his success this season. He’s also keenly targeted on remaining healthy after lacking lots of time with elbow accidents in latest years.

The righty, though, knows the additional innings he may soon see would come after some tough goodbyes.

“We spend like 10 hours a day with these guys,” he said of his bullpen mates. “It’s like family, and when this [players being traded] happens, it’s tough. But every change is for good, so we’re good with that.”

“We support each other every outing,” he added of the Mets bullpen tradition. “Doesn’t matter if you’re good or bad. You just be there for each other.”

That close-knit tradition will have to persist through some forthcoming personnel modifications, as Weaver, Minter and Raley have all had sturdy seasons and common themselves into commerce targets for contenders.

That could imply additional work for Duarte, Huascar Brazobán and Cionel Pérez, and interim supervisor Andy Green is keen to discover some positives in this lost season.

“Nobody wants to be on this side of a trade deadline,” Green said. “It’s where we find ourselves at this moment. That also doesn’t mean that there’s not a lot of meaningful games to be played before the season ends.”
