Dedniel Núñez emerged as the Mets' best reliever for much of the 2024 season after being given a chance by David Stearns. His strong performance was cut short by a late-season injury, but he is expected to be ready for the 2025 season. With Núñez's potential and the presence of closer Edwin Diaz, the Mets have a solid foundation for their bullpen moving forward.
