Mets' Historic Collapse: A Baseball Disintegration
9 Feb
Summary
- Mets experienced a significant collapse after leading MLB.
- Bo Bichette signed a three-year, $126 million contract.
- Brett Baty may be traded to the Boston Red Sox.
Last season, the New York Mets experienced a dramatic downfall, losing their top MLB standing and missing the playoffs entirely. This collapse was described as a 'disintegration' by analysts.
In response, the Mets made significant offseason moves, acquiring Luis Roberts and Freddy Peralta. A major acquisition was Bo Bichette, who signed a three-year contract worth $126 million. This signing is expected to alter the team's infield dynamics.
With Bichette joining, Brett Baty's role as the everyday third baseman is now uncertain. Speculation suggests Baty could be traded to the Boston Red Sox, potentially in exchange for Wilyer Abreu, a two-time Gold Glove winner. This potential deal could address needs for both clubs.
