Overview

• The Yankees are exploring a trade for Devin Williams to bolster their bullpen, which faced challenges late in the 2024 season.
• Williams, a two-time All-Star with a 1.25 ERA in 2024, is a free agent after 2025, making him an attractive but short-term option.
• The Mets could pair Williams with Edwin Diaz, creating a formidable bullpen duo as they look to fill pitching staff vacancies.
• Trade proposals suggest the Yankees might offer top pitching prospects, while the Mets could part with infielder Luisangel Acuña and third baseman Brett Baty.
• Milwaukee's decision to decline Williams' $10.5 million option was influenced by his upcoming free agency and potential trade value.
