Rumor Suggests NY Mets Need Blue Jays Help to Sign Kyle Tucker
Sportsnaut • • sports
Key Points:
- Kyle Tucker remains a top free agent this offseason, with the New York Mets, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Toronto Blue Jays as leading contenders for his services.
- The Mets have reportedly offered Tucker up to $50 million per season, positioning themselves as strong candidates in the pursuit.
- The Blue Jays were close to finalizing a long-term deal but need to increase their annual average value (AAV) offer to meet Tucker's expectations.
- Tucker is likely holding out for a higher AAV from Toronto, suggesting he prefers a long-term contract with them over shorter-term, high-rate deals from NL teams.
- If the Blue Jays boost their offer to the $300-$400 million range, they are expected to win the sweep
