After losing out on Juan Soto courtesy of a 16-year, $765 million offer from the New York Mets, the Yankees pivoted, opting to spend some of Soto's money on a l
The New York Mets could be losing a key player in free agency. If the team cannot sign him to a deal he could be a perfect fit for the Baltimore Orioles.
It was a long ride to the majors for Devin Williams, but the closer has more than earned his worth — minus a punch or two.
The New York Mets signed Juan Soto to a 16-year contract a little under a month ago. The $765 million deal – as well as the possible incentives – have been well-reported. Soto could very well stay in Queens for the rest of his career.
Devin Williams and Clay Holmes changed teams recently and both pitchers made their introductions to the Yankees and Mets on Tuesday.
Though Devin Williams arguably has been the most dominant closer in the game over the past two seasons when healthy, his brief experience of pitching in October has not gone well.
The New York Yankees strengthened their bullpen by trading for closer Devin Williams. The 2020 NL Rookie of the Year and two-time All-Star owns a 1.83 ERA and a 1.023 WHIP over 241 career relief appearances. After suffering a stress fracture in his back, Williams pitched in only 22 games for the Milwaukee Brewers last season.
Devin Williams had just arrived at Cressey Sports Performance in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., when he was stunned to learn he had been traded from the Milwaukee Brewers to the New York Yankees. While Williams had expected to be traded during the offseason, becoming a Yankee was not part of his vision.
It will be interesting to see if the Yankees' rivals in the American League East end up making any other notable moves. The Boston Red Sox recently traded for Garrett Crochet from the Chicago White Sox, a move that should help Boston bounce back following their mediocre 2024 campaign.
Devin Williams found autumn in New York inviting and he will get more time in the Big Apple after the New York Yankees acquired the All-Star closer from the Milwaukee Brewers for left-hander Nestor Cortes and infield prospect Caleb Durbin.
The Philadelphia Phillies have been fairly quiet so far this offseason, but this is a team that could shake things up in the blink of an eye.  After being elimi
The New York Yankees not only lost the World Series to the Los Angeles Dodgers, but they also lost one of their best players this offseason. Superstar outfielder Juan Soto was the top free agent before signing a deal with the New York Mets worth $765 million over 15 years.
