STUNNED: New York Mets LOSE Edwin Diaz to the Dodgers | Where Do They Go From Here?

New York Mets lose Edwin Diaz to the Los Angeles Dodgers as a dramatic free agent move shakes up the NL landscape. Are the Mets’ World Series dreams slipping away, or is there a silver lining with Devin Williams taking over the closer role? Ryan Finkelstein breaks down Diaz’s $69 million contract and analyzes how the Mets’ bullpen strategy pivots after missing out on their elite closer. Key discussion points include Devin Williams’ value compared to Diaz, potential replacements like Robert Suarez and Trevor McGill, and the impact of luxury tax concerns on Steve Cohen’s roster decisions. Plus, the Phillies successfully retain Kyle Schwarber, leaving fans wondering if it’s finally time for the Mets to lock up Pete Alonso long-term.
