The Winter Meetings was a bit of a dud this year, but while they were quiet for the Yankees and just about every other team in baseball, they did feature two Mets officially moving on from Queens, with
Edwin Díaz leaving for the Dodgers and Pete Alonso signing on with the Orioles. Let’s see if that trend is still running.
Today on the site, John will consider an old Yankees trade target for a possible bargain free agent addition to the outfield, as Max Kepler is available. Nick will explore the market as well, specifically a reunion with 2024 breakout Luke Weaver, whose 2025 did not end well in New York but could still offer intrigue. Later, Matt will finish up our Roster Report Cards series by grading the miscellaneous hitters to don the pinstripes this past season, and Madison will answer your mailbag questions.
Questions/Prompts:
1. Who will be the next major free agent to come off the board? (Use your own definition of “major.”)
2. True or False: Re-signing Cody Bellinger is more important than signing Tatsuya Imai.
