The New York Mets added some interesting pitching depth via free agency this weekend. They've signed a right-handed pitcher named Daniel Duarte to a contract. The signing was reported on MLB.com's transactions page, with it noted first by MLB Trade Rumors.

This article was originally published on www.si.com/mlb/mets/onsi as Ex-Mets manager gets honest about team’s roster shakeup. This former New York Mets manager knew things needed to change after a disastrous 2025 season.

The Mets moved on from the majority of their coaching staff after the 83-79 season — including bench coach John Gibbons, hitting coaches Jeremy Barnes and Eric Chavez, pitching coaches Jeremy Hefner and Desi Druschel, and base coaches Mike Sarbaugh and Antoan Richardson.

The New York Mets and San Diego Padres are reportedly in trade discussions despite the respective stars of each team being left out of negotiations.

The Mets lost key stars Edwin Diaz and Pete Alonso, plummeting in power rankings. Fans eagerly await impactful moves as time ticks away.

This exercise highlights the need for something big — something that goes against the grain of what the Mets have indicated this offseason.

The New York Mets lost two superstars this week, but also lost a breakout pitcher from the minor leagues in the Rule 5 Draft.

The New York Mets need to get going this offseason, and this trade idea with the Chicago White Sox would bring in a $20 million outfielder.
