Mets just signed Sean Manaea to a two year contract.  They also added Adrian Houser and Luis Severino.  I think that is probably a wrap for starting pitchers though some say they are considering signing Trevor Bauer.

Big drop from the starters they replace and Yamamoto, their top target this off season.

The offense looks to be more of the same with almost all the starters returning.  They added Harrison Bader to shore up defense in CF.  Guillorme got picked up by the Braves and we we added a bunch of decent depth pieces to the infield, outfield and catcher.  Added a bunch of relief pitchers with undistinguished stats that add different looks to the bullpen.

Hard to imagine the team being significantly better but it is increasingly looking like the plan is to give the young prospects a chance to show what they can do to see if they will be part of the long term plan.

I am expecting a losing season but maybe watching some young players emerge as good MLB players.  Maybe the coaching staff can coach this group up and get them to stay in playoff contention most of the season.
