David Stearns on how he approaches long-term vs. short-term contract offers for pitchers:

"Every situation is unique. Every pitcher or player needs to be evaluated as an individual."

David Stearns on the Mets' priorities when building their bullpen for next season:

"It's really 'can we just get guys out?". Whether it's right-handed, left-handed, where they've pitched before, how they get guys out - a little bit less important for us."

(Via @SNY_Mets)

[SleeperMets @SleeperMets]

David Stearns on if Marcus Semien will have to compete for playing time:

"He's gonna have to earn playing time. Talking with our guys at the end of the season, all of them came in from Juan Soto on down saying 'I'm going to earn my spot next year'"

David Stearns on Mark Vientos:

"Mark didn't have the season that he wanted to. He didn't have the season that we think he's capable of having. He's going into the offseason as a really motivated player. If he's able to do that, he's going to have an opportunity with us"

(Via @SNY_Mets)

[SleeperMets @SleeperMets]

David Stearns on Brett Baty's versatility:

"Any time a player can move around and do it with the level of skill that Brett did last year, it's incredibly valuable. Maybe he'll play CF next year."

(Via @SNY_Mets)

[SleeperMets @SleeperMets]

Brett Baty at CF....

No thanks...

[SNY Mets @SNY_Mets]

David Stearns was asked about the versatility of Brett Baty playing every position in the field last season except for CF

"Any time a player can move around and do it with the level of skill that Brett did last year, it's incredibly valuable. Maybe he'll play CF next year" 😂

David Stearns on Jefferson Rojas:

"The bat is real. That's what we like about him. This is a real right-handed bat. How close it is? He'll tell us.”

David Stearns on Mark Vientos:

"Mark didn't have the season that he wanted to. He didn't have the season that we think he's capable of having. He's going into the offseason as a really motivated player. If he's able to do that, he's going to have an opportunity with us"

Scott Boras on the Mets potentially signing a long-term deal after signing Juan Soto two years ago:

"The one thing Soto does is you walk in and say I've got something that has a ring on his finger. I have someone who is a proven winner, someone who is an elite talent. If you have someone that has that resume, I would say you would do that a number of times."

(Via @SNY_Mets)

[SleeperMets @SleeperMets]

I hate this guy so much

[SNY @SNYtv]

Scott Boras' phone rings during his availability

"Just another begging to meet with Skubal"

[SleeperMets @SleeperMets]

PLEASE just give the Mets the black pill.

[SleeperMLB @SleeperMLB]

Which pill are you taking? 🤔

Brooks Raley while with the Mets:

149 G
2.31 ERA

Would you want him back 🤔⁉️

[SleeperMets @SleeperMets]

UPDATE

The Mets, Blue Jays, Dodgers, Padres and two more teams are set to meet with Tarik Skubal next week, per @JonHeyman

Negotiations are expected to progress "rapidly."

[SleeperMets @SleeperMets]

UPDATE

The Mets have checked in on Darwinzon Hernández, per @Joelsherman1

Hernandez last pitched for the Red Sox from 2019-22, appearing for the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks for the past four seasons.

David Stearns on the Mets current bullpen situation;

We are going to add to our ’pen. I also really like the group we have. I like the flexibility that group gave us.”
