New York Mets officially announced the signing of Tommy Pham to a one-year contract. LHP Tayler Saucedo was been designated for assignment to make room for him on the 40 man roster. Pham, who will turn 35 in March, had 17 HRs, 63 RBIs, .236/.312/.374 - .686 OPS while splitting time in Cincinnati and Boston.
NY Post: Keith Raad expected to be Howie Rose’s new partner in Mets’ radio booth. "Keith Raad, who grew up a Mets’ fan on Long Island and is currently the voice of the Single-A Brooklyn Cyclones, has emerged as Audacy’s choice to replace Wayne Randazzo, according to sources."
I had the pleasure of interviewing Keith a couple of years ago for a different site. Being the Cyclones play-by-play guy since 2018 has made him extremely knowledgeable about the Mets minor league players. He will be a great asset to the Mets booth. Click here for part one and part two of the interview.
One of the great calls this past year from Keith Raad, Brooklyn Cyclones announcer. August 7th on Seinfeld night - "Boutros Boutros-Ghali…That was real and that was spectacular…" @KeithRaad @BKCyclones https://t.co/7Ld7xF8vhZ pic.twitter.com/AvJB0Tfz1G

Wagner's trend is very promising over the past six election cycles:
— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) January 24, 2023
2018: 11.1%
2019: 16.7%
2020: 31.7%
2021: 46.4%
2022: 51.0%
2023: 68.1%
If that trend continues, he has a good shot to be inducted in '24 and is a heavy favorite to get in before his time on the ballot expires.
It was Francisco Rodriguez & R.A. Dickey's first year on the Hall of Fame ballot.

"The Mets' payroll is a bit top-heavy, but the biggest deals in terms of AAV will come off the books right around the time their top prospects are ready to make an impact."
