Ryne Stanek Re-Signs With Mets
Free-agent right-handed reliever Ryne Stanek re-signed with the New York Mets on Wednesday on a one-year, $4.5 million deal, according to a source. Stanek can make another $500,000 in 2025 in incentives. The 33-year-old veteran reliever began the 2024 season pitching out of the Seattle Mariners' bullpen before being traded to the Mets at last year's deadline. He held a rough 6.06 ERA (4.39 FIP) and 1.29 WHIP with 23 strikeouts and eight walks in 16 1/3 relief innings in 17 regular-season outings for the Mets after the trade, but he turned things around in the postseason and gave up three earned runs with eight strikeouts and two holds in eight innings. Overall in 2024, he had a 4.88 ERA, 1.32 WHIP, 67 K's and seven saves in 55 1/3 innings with the M's and Mets. Expect him to operate once again in a high-leverage, middle-relief role as a setup man in front of closer Edwin Diaz in 2025.
