The New York Mets have signaled a clear intention to dominate in the late innings, aiming to construct one of baseball's most fearsome relief corps. The acquisition of dominant closer Devin Williams has already provided a massive shot in the arm, establishing a high floor for the team's bullpen success. However, the ultimate ceiling of this unit hinges on one major question: the return of their charismatic and electric former closer, Edwin Díaz.
With Williams now in the fold, the Mets have the luxury of pursuing two distinct yet equally formidable bullpen constructions. The decision to re-sign Díaz carries a hefty price tag but would instantly form a nearly impenetrable back-end duo.
