The New York Mets have signed veteran pitcher Frankie Montas to a two-year deal valued at $34 million. Despite a challenging season with the Cincinnati Reds and Milwaukee Brewers, where he posted a 4.84 ERA, the Mets see potential for improvement.
Montas has a history of being a solid starter, having previously ranked sixth in Cy Young voting. His pitch arsenal includes several above-average offerings, suggesting he could bounce back with the right adjustments.
His late-season performance with the Brewers showed promise, indicating he may be on the verge of a turnaround.
