The New York Mets have until 8:00pm ET tonight to tender contract offers to players on their team who are not under contract for the 2019 season. If the club chooses to non-tender a player, they will become a free agent.
The Mets have eight players eligible for arbitration, including 2018 Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom. It is all but guaranteed that the Mets will tender a contract to six of the eight players — deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, Zack Wheeler, Steven Matz, Michael Conforto, and Kevin Plawecki.
