Steve Cohen nearing $1 billion in offseason spending with Sean Manaea contract — and Mets aren’t done yet
NY Post
Steve Cohen is fast approaching a billion-dollar outlay this offseason, and the Mets’ work isn’t done.
The Amazin’s brought back one of their breakout stars of the 2024 season, agreeing to a three-year, $75 million contract with Sean Manaea early Monday morning.
That brings the Mets’ free-agent spending to $916.25 million, with $765 million of that going to Juan Soto.
Add in the additional $40 million Soto could get if the Mets void his opt-out clause after the fifth year of the 15-year deal, and that number increases to $956.25 million.
The smaller signings of utilityman Jared Young and pitcher Justin Hagenman bring the total to $958.25 million.
That number is going to go up more, as the Mets still have to finalize their infield plans.
