Following the New York Mets' collapse in the second half of the 2025 season that ended with the team missing the postseason, the NL East franchise was expected to make blockbuster moves in the offseason.However, the Mets have lost two considerable names in free agency as former All-Star closer Edwin Diaz snubbed the team to sign for the Los Angeles Dodgers, while franchise star Pete Alonso signed for the Baltimore Orioles in a stunning move.While the Mets' loss of two high-profile players this offseason has New York fans concerned, owner Steve Cohen said there is still plenty of offseason left to strengthen the roster.“I totally understand the fans’ reaction,” Cohen wrote. “There is lots of offseason left to put a playoff team on the field.”Diaz became a free agent after opting out of his Mets contract at the end of last season. He reportedly turned down a $66 million offer from New York and signed a three-year $69 million deal with the reigning World Series winners.Meanwhile, Alonso, a fan-favorite in the Queens, was expected to return to New York. However, the Mets reportedly didn't want to budge to Alonso's demands, leading to the All-Star first baseman signing a five-year, $155 million deal with the Orioles.Mets linked with former closer in free agency after Edwin Diaz snubAccording to reports, Edwin Diaz was unhappy with the Mets not informing him about the decision to sign All-Star closer Devin Williams this offseason. While the Mets have acquired Williams on a deal worth around $51 million, the NL East team is reportedly in the market for another high-profile closer.According to the New York Post's Jon Heyman, the Mets are interested in Tyler Rogers, who was traded to the team by the San Francisco Giants at the trade deadline in July.“Mets are showing interest in Tyler Rogers, the one deadline pickup who performed superbly. Unsurprisingly, Rogers has a very strong market,” Heyman wrote on X.Rogers posted a 2.30 ERA, 10 strikeouts, and a 1.10 WHIP in 27.1 innings over 28 games with the Mets last season.
