Mets Put Four-Year, $50 Million-Per-Season Offer to Kyle Tucker as Blue Jays Push Long-Term Deal

Tucker is weighing New York’s high-AAV proposal against Toronto’s reported willingness to go as long as 10 years with a decision expected soon.

Overview

  • The New York Post reports the Mets have a four-year offer on the table for Tucker at about $50 million per season, with no details yet on possible opt-outs.
  • ESPN’s Jeff Passan says the Blue Jays are the only club showing willingness to go to a decade-long pact, with the Dodgers also viewed as contenders.
  • Multiple outlets report a decision timeline of this week, with some indicating it could come as early as today and the Mets expecting an answer relatively soon.
  • The Mets initially discussed a three-year offer in the $120–$140 million range and held multiple video meetings with Tucker before expanding to four years.
  • Separately, the Phillies continue to prioritize re-signing J.T. Realmuto, with Rafael Marchán and Garrett Stubbs as their only 40-man catchers and recent minor-league depth adds Mark Kolozsvary and René Pinto as contingencies.
