Good Morning. Happy Birthday Jeff Torborg. Ronny Mauricio tries new position, Mets looking to bring back Adam Ottavino, and Mookie gets into catering.
Section Links: Mets Links, Winter Baseball, MLB Links, and This Day in Mets HistoryNY Post: Mets hope to bring back Adam Ottavino with bullpen decisions looming. "Ottavino, 37, pitched to a 2.06 ERA in 66 appearances for the club last season with 79 strikeouts in 65 ²/₃ innings...The Mets’ feeling is that Ottavino enjoys pitching in his hometown...and still could be a piece to the puzzle next season...Less likely at this point is the possibility of a Seth Lugo reunion...the right-hander still hasn’t heard from the Mets, according to sources"
Mike Puma NY Post Sports+: Mets legend Mookie Wilson brings family and a love of cooking together in his new catering business. Mookie recently made sure everyone got fed at the recent Mets fantasy camp. "Mookie Wilson of Legacy Catering, a business founded this year by Wilson and his family...The mobile catering business travels the East Coast for various events."

MLB.com: Experts make their 2023 Rookie of the Year picks. Writers "Sam Dykstra, Jim Callis and Jonathan Mayo got together on the Pipeline Podcast for a draft to build a five-player team of the prospects most likely to claim a Rookie of the Year award next year." Fancisco Alvarez went in the 3rd round where they said 'The power is obviously legitimate, so I think he has a chance to hit a bunch of homers and that will automatically open the eyes of Rookie of the Year voters."
Bleacher Report: Jacob deGrom an 'Organization-Changing' Free-Agent Talent, MLB Evaluator Says. "The last time deGrom surpassed 100 innings in a season was 2019. There is the potential for massive upside if he remains healthy in 2023. It certainly makes him worth a significant financial investment, especially for a team trying to win a World Series next season."
