NEW YORK (AP) — Sean Manaea is set to return to the New York Mets on a $75 million, three-year contract, a person familiar with the agreement told The Associated Press.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity Monday because the deal was subject to a successful physical.
Manaea blossomed into New York's top starting pitcher this year during his first season with the team, going 12-6 with a 3.47 ERA in 32 starts. The left-hander declined his player option for 2025, passing up the final $13.5 million of a $28 million, two-year deal he signed in January, to become a free agent for the third straight offseason.
Then he turned down a $21.05 million qualifying offer from the Mets last month to hit the open market again.
