"With three impact closers already off the board and a number of teams (including the Blue Jays, Dodgers, and Marlins) known to be looking for relief help this winter, that can only be good news for the remaining high-leverage relief arms on the market. remains at the front of the pack, with Robert Suarez, Pete Fairbanks, Emilio Pagan, and Kyle Finnegan among the many noteworthy bullpen arms still available on the market."
"Last night's Williams deal provides cover for the Mets if Diaz winds up signing elsewhere, though they're also not ruling out a reunion with their star ninth-inning man. Regardless of what happens with Diaz, there's plenty more work to be done for the Mets this winter. Pete Alonso needs to be re-signed or replaced on the infield, there are multiple holes in the outfield, and trade candidacies for players like Jeff McNeil and Kodai Senga have yet to be resolved."
"The offseason is underway, and the hot stove is starting to sizzle. Five of MLBTR's top 50 free agents have signed so far (in addition to the four who accepted qualifying offers), and the trade market has started buzzing early as Taylor Ward, Grayson Rodriguez, Marcus Semien, and Brandon Nimmo have all changed hands in the first few weeks of the offseason."
The Mets signed right-hander Devin Williams to a three-year, $51MM deal with $15MM in deferrals, adding to a wave of high-profile relief signings this offseason. Several impact closers have already been claimed, increasing demand and value for remaining bullpen arms such as Robert Suarez, Pete Fairbanks, Emilio Pagan, and Kyle Finnegan. The Mets still face roster tasks including re-signing or replacing Pete Alonso, addressing multiple outfield needs, and resolving trade candidacies for Jeff McNeil and Kodai Senga while pursuing rotation improvements. Early offseason activity includes multiple free-agent signings and notable trades.
