The New York Mets made the biggest noise in this year's free agency period with the signing of outfielder Juan Soto to a record 15-year, $765 million contract.

Rare non-Pete Alonso news just dropped. Free agent outfielder Jurickson Profar has reached an agreement on a contract with the Atlanta Braves for three-years,

The New York Mets are linked to free agent slugger Jurickson Profar to replace Pete Alonso, according to Robert Murray.

Back in December, the Mets reportedly offered Teoscar Hernández a two-year deal, indicating a willingness to add to the outfield. However, that was before Winker was re-signed. The fact that they apparently hung around the Profar market even with Winker on the roster suggests a willingness to continue adding.

Profar, a switch-hitter, began lifting his front leg higher at the start of his swing. He said advice from former major leaguer Fernando Tatis and work with San Diego outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. last offseason helped convince him to make the change, which added power to his swing.

According to one report Friday, the New York Mets were interested in a free agent outfielder before he signed with a division rival.

The Mets are among the teams that have spoken with the Padres regarding Dylan Cease, writes Jon Heyman of The New York Post. Jon Morosi of the MLB Network reported this afternoon that the Cubs were also involved on the star righty.

Jurickson Profar, who grew idolizing former Atlanta Braves centerfielder Andruw Jones, agreed to a three-year, $42 million deal with the same club on Thursday.

A new leg kick helped make Jurickson Profar a first-time MLB All-Star at 31 with the San Diego Padres in 2024.

Former Padres outfielder Jurickson Profar and the Braves agreed on a three-year, $42 million contract Thursday.

New York moved quickly to fill the void on its roster, re-signing outfielder Jesse Winker to a one-year contract worth $8 million. However, there’s an All-Star and Silver Slugger Award winner in MLB free agency that the club remains interested in.

The New York Mets could add more starting pitching in the upcoming days and weeks, and San Diego Padres' righty Michael King could be a realistic option
