Mets eyeing big-time hurlers if Jacob deGrom bolts via free agency

If there’s one thing I love about the Mets with Steve Cohen in charge, it’s that New York is always ready to strike. This pertains to their primary acquisition targets, as well as alternatives if Option 1 is no longer available.

Let’s not forget the Steven Matz situation from last winter, folks. It seemed like a reunion with the Mets was likely before he signed with the St. Louis Cardinals for four years and $44 million. Cohen tweeted about how he wasn’t happy with what happened. The Mets then proceeded to sign Eduardo Escobar, Mark Canha, Starling Marte, and Max Scherzer in the next few days.
