Baseball America released their Off-Season Top 10 Mets list: Jett Williams placed #1, Brandon Sproat #2 and Jesus Baez jumped into the top 10 at #3. More on this list below.
Mike Puma NY Post: David Stearns took recruiting trip to Japan with eyes on coveted pitcher Roki Sasaki. "Sasaki, 23, has not been posted by the Chiba Lotte Marines of Nippon Professional Baseball...Stearns said he didn’t meet Sasaki on his trip to Japan, but felt it was important to let the Mets’ interest be known."
David Lennon Newsday: Scott Boras enjoys being in middle of Yankees-Mets rivalry, although this time name of game is money. "For Scott Boras, there’s only one thing better than a New York baseball team, flush with cash, drooling over your nine-figure client. And that’s having both of them doing so."
Jon Heyman NY Post: Rays join growing list of Juan Soto suitors as two other mystery teams emerge.
Jon Heyman NY Post: Pete Alonso has plenty of other possibilities if he doesn’t return to Mets. 1. Giants; 2. Mariners; 3. Astros; 4. Blue Jays; 5. Red Sox; 6. Phillies; 7. Orioles; 8. Diamondbacks;
David Stearns was asked how Steve Cohen is an asset in pitches to free agents:

2000 |
Receiving 25-of-32 first-place votes, the BBWAA selects
Rafael Furcal as the National League Rookie of the Year. The Braves
shortstop, who is the only player listed on all 32 ballots, easily
outdistances Cardinal pitcher Rick Ankiel and Mets outfielder Jay Payton. |
|
2012 |
With a year remaining on his contract, outfielder Jason
Bay is released by the Mets after three very disappointing seasons with New
York. The move will not save the team any money as they will be responsible
for the $21 million owed to the former National League Rookie of the Year,
who signed a big free-agent deal with the club in 2009. |
