The Mets aimed to sign top free agent Kyle Tucker but lost out to the Dodgers, who secured him with a four-year, $240 million contract. Quickly regrouping, the Mets signed Bo Bichette to a three-year, $126 million deal, despite the Phillies initially being favorites to land him. Bichette will play third base for the Mets, displacing Brett Baty, while the Phillies redirect funds to re-sign catcher J.T. Realmuto. Bichette’s contract includes opt-outs, and his fantasy value may decrease due to Citi Field’s impact on his batting average.
