The New York Mets free agent class brought in for the 2018 season is about as bad as it could get. Jay Bruce, Todd Frazier, Jose Reyes, Anthony Swarzak, and Jason Vargas all signed multi-year deals with the Mets hoping to turn them around from the bleak 2017 campaign. As we suffered through last year, those five all contributed to the woes of 2018.
With a new regime in place headed by Brodie Van Wagenen, many of us hoped for a better crop of free agents in the winter of 2018-2019.
