Danny Abriano SNY.TV: Stay or Go: Should Mets re-sign Edwin Diaz? Diaz has not only embraced the pressure of New York, but thrived under it while becoming the best closer in baseball.

Danny Abriano SNY.TV: If Jacob deGrom leaves Mets, could it lead to pursuit of Shohei Ohtani or Aaron Judge? Trea Turner and Carlos Correa could also be ideal Mets fits.

NY Post: Clock ticking for Mets to make critical Carlos Carrasco decision. "Carlos Carrasco’s contract contains a team option worth $14 million for 2023 that the Mets have to decide on within five days of the World Series’ conclusion. Carrasco will receive a $3 million buyout if the Mets decline the option."
