NY Post: Steve Cohen confident Mets will make Carlos Correa decision soon. "'While I can’t speak on the player, I do believe we’ll have a resolution soon one way or the other,' Cohen told Tyler Ward, a Mets YouTuber, at a Citi Field event on Saturday."
Joel Sherman NY Post: Mets, Yankees take different paths as Carlos Correa saga drags on. "... the Mets trying to finalize a deal with Correa after the Yankees ignored him in two different offseasons provides the backdrop to what most fascinates me about the New York clubs in the new year."
SNY.TV: Mets RHP William Woods clears waivers and has been outrighted to Triple-A Syracuse. Woods was DFA'd last week to make room for Adam Ottavino on the roster.
