Good morning, Mets fans!
According to WEII’s Rob Bradford, the Red Sox are not out of the mix for standout Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki. The 23-year-old started 18 games in the NPB this season, logging a 2.35 ERA and 10.5 K/9.
According to Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the Cardinals are in the market for a late-inning relief pitcher to replace Andrew Kittredge. Last season, Kittredge threw 70 2/3 innings, recording a 2.80 ERA.
According to KRPC’s Ari Alexander, the Blue Jays have offered outfielder Anthony Santander a contract. In 155 games with the Orioles last season, Santander slashed .235/.308/.506/.814.
