Although the Los Angeles Dodgers are the favorites to sign a number of high-profile free agents, a number of MLB executives expect starting pitcher Corbin Burnes to land with the New York Mets.
In an ESPN survey, only two executives believe the Dodgers will sign Burnes, while seven out of 18 executives believe the Mets will snag the right-hander. Burnes, 30, is arguably one of the best pitchers in the majors and is poised to earn a massive payday this winter.
In 2024, Burnes finished with a 2.92 ERA and a 15-9 record. Burnes had 181 strikeouts donning a Baltimore Orioles uniform for the time of his career.
