With plenty of wiggle room in their player pool for 2020, the Mets have taken to the free agent market in an attempt to add some more depth to their roster for this unique shortened season. In addition to bringing back outfielder Ryan Cordell, the Mets have signed free agent right-handed reliever Hunter Strickland.
Mets fans are intimately familiar with Strickland, who was brought on to the Washington Nationals via trade during the 2019 season in an effort to bolster their struggling bullpen for their stretch run to the playoffs.
