1/16/2025: Report - Mets to resign Jesse Winker. Per Joel Sherman on X: "Jesse Winker deal is actually 1 yr for $7.5M with a chance to reach $9M via bonuses."
MLB.com: Here are the Top 10 first base prospects for 2025. #7 Ryan Clifford. They included Ryan on the players with the best Arm Strength and Most to prove saying: "Clifford struggled in High-A to begin last season before batting .231/.359/.456 with 18 homers in 98 Double-A games. But he also struck out at 30 percent clip overall (29 percent in Double-A) and he'll need to demonstrate that he can make consistent contact against upper-level pitching."
Jesse Winker deal is actually 1 yr for $7.5M with a chance to reach $9M via bonuses.

With a gap in talks remaining, Mets are looking more seriously at other options and a return for Pete Alonso seems much less likely now
— Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) January 16, 2025
"The major point here today is that this could be a big day in the history of the franchise. One of the great offensive players just could not come to terms with the organization.

The Mets now think that Pete Alonso will play elsewhere in 2025 and beyond." - @martinonyc
