Dropping Edwin Diaz to the Los Angeles Dodgers was unhealthy sufficient for the New York Mets, however shedding him over a complete of $3 million was borderline humiliating.
And now that Pete Alonso has additionally left Queens, Steve Cohen’s crew should do loads of heavy lifting to appease the followers.
With that in thoughts, they are going to reportedly look to bolster their bullpen with a well-recognized face. In accordance with a report by MLB insider Jon Heyman, the Mets wish to convey again Tyler Rogers.
Mets do not wish to lose Tyler Rogers
“Mets are displaying curiosity in Tyler Rogers, the one deadline pickup who carried out fantastically. Unsurprisingly, Rogers has a really robust market,” Heyman reported on X.
A seven-year hurler identified for his unorthodox launch, Rogers made 28 appearances in Queens final season.
He logged a decent 2.30 ERA with 10 strikeouts and a 1.10 WHIP over 27.1 innings of labor.
His strikeout charge (17.6%) does not pop up, however he is nice at making hitters put the ball on the bottom and stopping onerous contact.
After all, maintaining him round for the long term will not make up for the lack of the most effective — if not the very best — relievers in all of baseball.
However with the Mets trying like the largest losers of the Winter Conferences, they should do one thing.
Steve Cohen preached endurance, however after watching the crew collapse within the second half of final season, the fan base could not wish to hear something about that proper now.
