They?ve got a number of key deals across the line but have missed out on some as well. Following the failed Carlos Correa deal, the Mets have most recently signed a player that fans aren?t very happy with. Furthermore, this MLB veteran has had some controversy surrounding him over the last couple of years.

These reactions from fans are justified as they expected an All-Star-level talent and they got Pham instead. Tommy Pham has built a reputation as a solid batter and will bring experience to the roster. Furthermore, the deal is a low-risk deal, and according to mlb.com?s Anthony DiComo is only worth $6 million. Additionally, the Mets have already added a lot of quality to their roster this off-season.

The Mets have gone all-in this off-season

Although Carlos Correa ended up signing with the Minnesota Twins, the Mets have made a lot of other great signings. They signed star pitcher Justin Verlander in what was a great move. Furthermore, they have brought back key pieces in star reliever Edward Diaz and outfielder Brandon Nimmo.

The Mets also picked up sensational Japanese ace Kodai Senga in free agency. All-in-all, the team has done an exceptional job building on the roster they had last year. The only thing left is to see how these signings turn out and Pham is a very low-risk investment for the team. What do you think of the fact that the Mets have agreed to a deal with Tommy Pham?
