Frankie Montas Joins Mets on Two-Year Deal, Eyeing Career Revival

The 31-year-old pitcher aims to follow in the footsteps of Sean Manaea and Luis Severino, who thrived with the Mets' pitching development program.

Frankie Montas signed a two-year, $34 million contract with the Mets, including an opt-out after the first year.
Montas, who struggled with injuries in recent years, credits mental adjustments and improved health for his late-season resurgence with the Brewers in 2024.
Former teammates Sean Manaea and Luis Severino, both of whom improved significantly under the Mets’ system, influenced Montas' decision to join the team.
Montas praised the Mets' resources and approach to player development, expressing confidence in their ability to help him return to peak performance.
The Mets continue to solidify their rotation, with Montas joining Kodai Senga and David Peterson, while further pitching additions are anticipated.
