Tim Healey Newsday: Mets would prefer to hold on to their top prospects. Tim rehashed what Billy Eppler stated last week at the GM meetings namely "The Mets will look largely to free agency to piece together, for example, their pitching staff this offseason...Eppler repeatedly mentioned considering the trade market to fill those holes — plus any lineup changes deemed worthwhile — but acquiring impact players would require giving up impact players."

Abbey Mastracco New York Daily News Mets free agency primer: Position players to target to fill the need for another big bat. 2B/SS/CF Trea Turner, LF Andrew Benintendi, 1B Josh Bell are the "Headliners" with 2B Jean Segura, OF Mitch Haniger, UT Jurickson Profar seen as the "Wild Cards".

Danny Abriano SNY.TV: 5 under the radar free agents Mets should target during 2022-23 offseason. RHP Nathan Eovaldi, RHP James Taillon, RH Reliever Michael Fulmer, Rh Reliever Chad Green, and OF Mitch Haniger are mentioned.

2006

The Mets stage a groundbreaking ceremony to mark the construction of the 45,000-seat ballpark, which will replace Shea Stadium in 2009. The new $800 million ballpark, named Citi Field in association with Citigroup Inc., will be reminiscent of Ebbets Field and will feature a statue of Jackie Robinson in a rotunda named after the immortal Brooklyn Dodger infielder.

 

2013

The Phillies announce the team has reached a two-year, $16 million deal with Marlon Byrd, who helped the Pirates reach the postseason for the first since 1992 by hitting .318 after being traded by the Mets to the Bucs at the end of August. Last offseason, the 36 year-old outfielder signed a minor league contract with New York, emerging as one of the team's few offensive assets before being dealt to Pittsburgh along with John Buck for two minor league prospects.
