Good Morning. Happy Birthday Kevin Mitchell and Alex Ramirez. Sean Manaea to Zoom with Mets Press today and Roki Sasaki causing havoc in the International Free Agent market.
Section Links: Mets Links, MLB Links, Winter Baseball, and This Day in Mets History.
The Mets have scheduled a Zoom call with Sean Manaea for this afternoon at 3 PM for him to address the media on his re-signing with the Mets. If possible, we will post the zoom here at Mets News and Links later today.
This coming Wednesday the International Free Agent period begins. Roki Sasaki entering this group has thrown off a number of teams and International Free Agent signings.
The Athletic: "‘Absolutely insane’: Roki Sasaki chase has clubs rethinking prospect deals, seeking trades. "The Padres, Dodgers, Mets, Yankees, Cubs, Giants, and Rangers are among the teams that reportedly received an in-person meeting with him. But the fallout from Sasaki’s decision will affect the entire international market...causing clubs to maneuver in atypical ways so close to signing day, either by delaying commitments with other prospects, completely reneging on big-money agreements or weighing trades involving international cash."
Mack Ade of Mack Mets yesterday stated something that many Mets fans feel: "I will take a seasoned, talented veteran over a 16-year old every day of the week."
Mets are reported to have a deal with Elian Pena who looks like an elite infield prospect.
