Max Fried’s free agency: 5 possible landing spots for LHP

New York Mets

The Mets have been linked to the top free agents on the market after carrying the highest payroll in the majors in 2024. Juan Soto will certainly be at the top of the list, but a pitching addition seems necessary as Sean Manaea, Luis Severino and Jose Quintana are all free agents. A move to a division rival would be a sore sight for Braves fans, but the Mets could have the most attractive offer after finishing two games short of a World Series appearance.
