Mets consider trade for Sandy Alcántara to improve rotation

newsweek.com

The New York Mets are facing injury challenges in their starting rotation as they begin the season. Sean Manaea and Frankie Montas will not be available, leading Clay Holmes to start on opening day. To strengthen their pitching, the Mets are considering a trade with the Miami Marlins for Sandy Alcántara. Alcántara, a former Cy Young Award winner, has struggled recently and missed the entire 2024 season, affecting his trade value. The proposed trade would involve the Mets giving up two top prospects. Alcántara has a five-year, $56 million contract, and his addition could enhance the Mets' rotation, even when fully healthy.
