The New York Mets made a huge splash in the free agent market on Friday, when they secured outfielders Starling Marte and Mark Canha, in addition to infielder Eduardo Escobar. Those three signings marked a paradigm shift for them, as they turned their focus on strengthening a shallow rotation.
On Sunday night, they made huge advances in signing one of the best free agent arms available in Max Scherzer. During the trade deadline, the multiple Cy Young award winner snubbed the Mets for the West Coast, but now, New York reportedly has the highest offer on the table for Scherzer.
