The New York Mets were one of the most disappointing teams in baseball during the 2025 season. Despite owning the best record in MLB in June, they went on a months-long spiral that resulted in them missing the postseason altogether.
That certainly isn’t what anyone had in mind after signing Juan Soto to the largest contract in sports history last offseason. Looking to ensure a letdown doesn’t occur again, you can be sure the Mets will aggressively pursue upgrades this offseason.
A lot of attention is going to be put on the pitching staff, and rightfully so. The starting rotation couldn’t get the job done, putting too much pressure on a bullpen that was worn down and suffered several meltdowns.
Alas, pitching isn’t their only need. There are a few spots in their lineup that have to get figured out, and it is imperative to find answers in the outfield. One player who could help fill that void is Steven Kwan of the Cleveland Guardians.
