Mets Non-Tender Alex Young, Grant Hartwig, Alex Ramírez

The New York Mets made official decisions on all eight of their arbitration-eligible players, whose salary estimates for 2025 are listed below, ahead of Friday’s non-tender deadline.

• RHP Paul Blackburn ($4.4MM): Tendered
• LHP David Peterson ($4.4MM): Tendered
• OF Tyrone Taylor ($2.9MM): Tendered
• OF Jose Siri ($2.3MM): Tendered
• RHP Tylor Megill ($2.1MM): Tendered
• LHP Alex Young ($1.4MM): Non-tendered
• C Luis Torrens ($1.1MM): Tendered
• RHP Sean Reid-Foley ($900K): Avoided arbitration with one-year deal

New York claimed Young off waivers from the San Francisco Giants on July 17. He recorded a 3.29 ERA across 13 2/3 innings with the team, though he was left off the postseason roster and was typically utilized in low-leverage spots towards the end of the regular season.

The Mets also non-tendered a pair of pre-arbitration players in right-handed reliever Grant Hartwig and outfielder Alex Ramírez.

Hartwig posted a 6.75 ERA in four major league appearances this year while finishing with a 4.34 ERA over 33 outings for Triple-A Syracuse.

Ramírez, whom Baseball America ranked as the No. 92 prospect in baseball ahead of the 2023 campaign, struggled mightily over his past two seasons. He hit .221/.310/.317 with a 78 wRC+ in 120 games with High-A Brooklyn last year before slashing .210/.291/.299 across 123 contests with Double-A Binghamton in 2024.
