The Mets should end their offseason by sending Jeff McNeil to the Diamondbacks in a trade with the Diamondbacks

The Mets might have to prepare for spring training without Brandon Nimmo, their reliable outfielder, as he continues to battle

Some new MLB rumors suggest the New York Mets and Toronto Blue Jays are serious competitors for not one, but two big-name players still available in free agency. The Mets and Blue Jays entered the offseason determined to improve their rosters in a major way.

A.J. Minter is hopeful he can be ready by Opening Day; Ronny Mauricio is progressing (but not sprinting); Dedniel Nunez is throwing and “healthy,” manager Carlos Mendoza said; and Paul Blackburn has returned to a mound.

One of the key decisions facing the Mets is whether to re-sign first baseman Pete Alonso. Negotiations have been ongoing, with reports suggesting that the team is taking a firm stance. They are offering a take-it-or-leave-it deal. Alonso’s market is weaker than expected. This allows the Mets to secure him on terms they prefer.

“We’re committed for him to be a starter,” Mets manager Carlos Mendoza, who previously worked with Holmes as the Yankees’ bench coach, said on a panel Saturday. “He’s going to get a lot of opportunities. We understand that even the best of the best are gonna go through some struggles.”

Brandon Nimmo’s foot issue from last season will bleed into spring training, but he hopes it will be solved by Opening Day.

The Mets appear willing to roll the dice on Brett Baty as their everyday third baseman in 2025, a decision that carries plenty of risk. With Mark Vientos training for a potential shift to first base—contingent on whether or not Pete Alonso returns—Baty is positioned to take over at the hot corner.
