Why Mets Executive Refuses to Comment on Top Rumors Surrounding The Team

The New York Mets stand poised for potential enhancements.

Following a disappointing season, which culminated in 75 victories and a fourth-place finish in the NL East, the team recognizes the need for progress.

Nevertheless, as they approach 2024, there are glimmers of hope. They retain a strong core of hitters, spearheaded by Pete Alonso and Francisco Lindor. Additionally, the return of star closer Edwin Diaz, absent for the entirety of the previous season, adds to their optimism.

However, indications suggest the Mets are exploring avenues for improvement. Two notable names linked to the team are J.D. Davis and J.D. Martinez. Mets executive David Stearns, when questioned about these players by Anthony DiComo, chose not to provide any insight.

Despite this, the Mets express confidence in Brett Baty and Mark Vientos, potentially filling roles at third base and designated hitter respectively.
