…tears of happiness because the Mets sign him?

Brandon Lowe would be an interesting option for the Mets but it would mean that they’ve decided to eat the contract with Semien, and they’re not relying on one of the kids for 2027. I certainly see the value in both of those but I wonder if the Mets will. 
 

Lowe comes with injury risk. He’s been healthy the last two years, but missed a lot of time from 22-24. Productive player when healthy. Last year’s .824 might be a stretch for him to replicate at his age, but he should be good for high 700s. 
 

Jim Bowden predicts a 3 year, $45M deal but I think others are estimating a bit higher. Maybe 4 years, and as high as $20M per.

Nick Martinez declines his mutual option and is now a free agent.

I think they keep Simmy and make Rojas take it from him. Then you can release him or trade him back to Texas for DeGrom

[Benjamin Grimm]

I saw a rumor that deGrom might be dealt to Detroit. Don't know if it was a credible source. I agree with the above, though. Semien will go to spring training and will have to fight for his job. Rojas is the bigger threat, but I'm staking an early bid on Pitre as the 2027 dark horse.
