After surprisingly reaching the NLCS in October, the goal was to fill holes and get better this offseason. Well, the organization addressed the openings they had in the starting rotation and made a little move that handed Juan Soto the richest contract in sports history.<\/p>\n<p>However, President David Stearns and the front office are far from done. They have a big question mark at first base. Plus, recent rumors claimed the front office was still looking to improve the bullpen and sign another starting pitcher.<\/p>\n<p>In a Wednesday column, New York Post MLB insider Joel Sherman took a swing at addressing the rotation and bullpen needs with a bold blockbuster trade proposal that isn\u2019t at all impossible.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>New York Mets payroll (2025):<\/strong> $264.6 million<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"h-could-the-new-york-mets-make-a-push-for-san-diego-padres-pitcher-dylan-cease\">Could the New York Mets make a push for San Diego Padres pitcher Dylan Cease?<\/h2>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MLB-NLDS-San-Diego-Padres-at-Los-Angeles-Dodgers-24418179-788x525.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 788px) 100vw, 788px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=788,height=525,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MLB-NLDS-San-Diego-Padres-at-Los-Angeles-Dodgers-24418179.jpg 788w, https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=428,height=285,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MLB-NLDS-San-Diego-Padres-at-Los-Angeles-Dodgers-24418179.jpg 428w, https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=196,height=131,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MLB-NLDS-San-Diego-Padres-at-Los-Angeles-Dodgers-24418179.jpg 196w, https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=465,height=310,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MLB-NLDS-San-Diego-Padres-at-Los-Angeles-Dodgers-24418179.jpg 465w\" alt=\"New York Mets insider proposes bold and realistic blockbuster trade for three impact pitchers, including Dylan Cease\" width=\"788\" height=\"525\" \/><figcaption>Credit: Kiyoshi Mio-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cHere is another thought \u2013 could the Mets try for [Dylan] Cease, Robert Suarez, and Yuki Matsui? To get a quality starter, co-closer type, and lefty reliever in one deal?\u201d Sherman wrote. \u201cThey combine to make $29.25 in 2025 (and Matsui is owed $24.75 million for four more seasons).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCould the Mets include [Starling] Marte ($19.5 million) with prospects so that San Diego saves $10 million next year (while also getting out of subsequent years of Matsui) and adds a desperately needed bat in left or DH?\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Dylan Cease stats (2024): <\/strong>14-11 record, 3.47 ERA, 1.067 WHIP, 224 strikeouts, 189.1 innings pitched<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Sherman\u2019s idea is based on the belief the San Diego Padres want to cut payroll ahead of the 2025 season. That is a real likelihood because the MLB insider also claimed he has \u201cyet to talk to an outside executive who does not expect San Diego to drop beneath the first luxury tax threshold of $241 million. Possibly significantly so.\u201d The Padres are projected to have a payroll of $247 million next season.<\/p>\n<p>Cease would be a great addition to the New York Mets. Even though he could be a one-year rental before a jump into free agency. Matsui was solid in his MLB debut last season. And Suarez would give the team a high-level set-up man who can close games if Edwin Diaz struggles again in 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A New York Mets insider recently offered up a bold blockbuster trade idea for a trio of impact pitchers, including Dylan Cease.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":28410,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28409","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
