Empire Sports Media: Why the Mets had to sign Justin Verlander. Following the expected but still tough loss of nine-year Met-great Jacob deGrom, the Mets needed to pivot fast, and kudos to them for doing so.
The Cold Wire: The Mets are suddenly losing their edge in the NL East.
Tigres del Licey 2 Aguilas Cibaenas 1 (Box Score) Ronny Mauricio 3B 1 for 4, 1 run scored - hitting .311 with an .856 OPS; Hansel Robles 1 inning, no runs, no hits, 1 walk, 2 Ks - 1.69 ERA; Juan Lagares LF 0 for 4 - hitting .000 with .000 OPS;
Ronny Mauricio gets on base in the 9th and makes a great slide to score the winning run last night in Winter Ball. 1 for 4, 1 run scored - hitting .311 with an .856 OPS. #mets #LGM #MetsTwitter @TimothyRRyder @ernestdovehttps://t.co/Ieo3RlQn07 pic.twitter.com/hqzXQmPQ5J

1984 | The Mets send right-handed starter Walt Terrell to the Tigers in exchange for infielder Howard Johnson. New York's new third baseman will spend nine years with the club and will return to the organization to become a minor league manager and big-league coach. |
1988 | Nolan Ryan becomes the first major leaguer to play for all four original expansion teams when he signs as a free agent with the Rangers, who played their first 11 seasons as the new Senators in Washington, D.C. The right-hander broke in with the Mets (1966, 1968-71) went to the Angels in a trade (1972-79), before signing with the Astros (1980-1988), a team initially known as the Colt .45s. |
1988 | The Mets deal Wally Backman along with prospect Mike Santiago to the Twins for minor leaguers Jeff Bumgarner, Steve Gasser, and Toby Nivens. The trade leaves second base open for Gregg Jefferies, but the highly touted rookie infielder will falter, hitting a meager .258 next season. |
1999 | The Mariners sign Mets' free-agent first baseman John Olerud to a $20-million, three-year deal. The former Washington State University All-American will garner a Gold Glove in each of his three seasons in Seattle, and he will play a pivotal role in the team's historic 116-46 campaign in 2001, compiling a .401 on-base percentage. |
2011 | At the Winter Meetings, Jose Reyes is introduced as the Marlins' new shortstop. The 28 year-old switch-hitting infielder, the NL's batting champ, signed a six-year, $106 million contract to play with Miami after the cash-strapped Mets showed little interest in retaining their homegrown All-Star. |
2010: Signings today include the Mets reaching agreement with P D.J. Carrasco and C Ronny Paulino. Paulino still has 8 games remaining on 50-game suspension for PED use which he began to serve as a member of the Marlins at the end of last season.
