The New York Mets had discussions with closer Kenley Jansen's camp in free agency, according to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic.

Per Rosenthal and Sammon, Jansen's goal of reaching 500 career saves to go along with his likely price tag "muddied the match."

New York ended up bringing back right-handed reliever Ryne Stanek on a one-year contract on Wednesday.

After agreeing to terms with Stanek, the Mets "appear unlikely" to add another bullpen option (via Rosenthal and Sammon).
