Mets Agree To $1.5M Deal With MJ Melendez

The Mets have agreed to an MLB deal with Melendez worth $1.5 million plus $500K in incentives. The former Royals catcher/outfielder struggled in 2025, hitting .083 with one homer, one RBI and five hits. The Mets add Melendez as a low-risk depth bat, betting on his past power and versatility to rebound in a new setting.
