NY Post: Mets have plenty of options to make another bullpen addition: Those still available in free agency include names such as Carlos Estevez, David Robertson, Dylan Floro and Jakob Junis. In addition, Phil Maton and Ryne Stanek, both of whom were dependable for the Mets in the second half of last season, remain unsigned.
Manny Gomez NJ News: Mets ‘lineup isn’t good,’ their ex-GM says. Teams needs Pete Alonso. "On his MLB Network Radio show, Jim Duquette explained why he feels Alonso is the Mets best chance at protecting the “investment” they have in outfielder Juan Soto, who they signed for 15 years, $765 million in December. “That lineup isn’t that good,” Duquette said, via Twitter/X. “It’s better than it was last year, but it’s not that good overall if you’re going to have whatever your options going to be at third base —(Brett) Baty, (Luisangel) Acuna, (Ronny) Mauricio, anything like that. “I’m not saying those guys can’t play and contribute at some point this year, but it’s certainly not going to be anywhere near the type of production that Alonso’s gonna give you.”

2005 |
Traded to the Mets yesterday, first baseman Doug
Mientkiewicz, who caught and kept the ball used to make the final out, giving
the Red Sox their first World championship in 86 years, will lend his
souvenir to his former club. The historic horsehide, which Boston claims
belongs to the team, will be encased within a plaque and become part of the
victory tour, featuring the World Series trophy. |
2009 |
Aaron Heilman is traded for the second time this offseason
when the Mariners swap the 30-year-old right-hander to the Cubs for utility
infielder Ronny Cedeno and southpaw Garrett Olson. Seven weeks ago, the Mets
dealt the much-maligned reliever to Seattle as part of a three-team trade
that included the Indians. |
