Fansided: 3 Mets who won’t be back next season and where they’ll go. AUthor Eric Treuden thinks the "Braves are going to swoop in and steal deGrom".

Andy Martino SNY.TV: Early reporting on key Mets free agents Jacob deGrom, Edwin Diaz, Brandon Nimmo and more. Chris Bassitt, Taijuan Walker, Seth Lugo, Adam Ottavino and Trevor May are among the Mets' many free agents.  About deGrom Andy states: "The Mets will pursue deGrom, but they don’t yet know how aggressively, or what deGrom’s contract demands will be, or how much outside interest in him there will be at Max Scherzer-like money."

Andy Martino SNY.TV also noted: Despite early playoff exit, Mets and Steve Cohen will entrust GM Billy Eppler with a crucial offseason. The mood in the organization Monday morning was disappointed but evenhanded.

Mets also have a number of Arbitration players.  MLB Trade Rumors provided the Projected Arbitration Salaries for 2023.  Two interesting ones were - Jeff McNeil: $6.2MM and Pete Alonso: $15.9MM.

Sportico: Cohen's Mets spending spree unwinds gradually, then suddenly.

1967

With a year remaining on his contract to manage Washington, Gil Hodges inks a three-year deal to become the Mets skipper, ending the speculation that Yogi Berra, a coach with the team, would replace the recently-resigned Wes Westrum. New York agrees to pay significant reparations to the Senators and send a player from the 40-man roster to Washington to get the fan-favorite former Dodger.

2002

Buck Showalter, who compiled a 563-504 (.527) managerial record in six seasons with the Yankees and Diamondback, is hired by the last-place Rangers to replace Jerry Narron, let go two days ago as the team's skipper. The Cubs, Mets, Devil Rays, and Brewers had also expressed an interest in the 46-year-old ESPN commentator.

 

2006

On a rainy mid-week afternoon in Manhattan, Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle and his flight instructor Tyler Stanger die as their four-seat plane crashes into an Upper East Side high-rise building. Manny Acta, the Mets' third base coach, is not sure he will be able to go to his home after tonight's scheduled Game 1 of the NLCS at Shea Stadium due to damage to the Belaire Condominiums caused by the crash.
