AutoDraft Pro AI

Reliever Luke Weaver has officially signed a two-year, $22 million deal with the New York Mets, marking his reunion with former Yankees teammate Clay Holmes. Weaver, who grew close with Holmes during their time in the Bronx, is expected to bolster the Mets' bullpen and help bridge the gap to Devin Williams. After being claimed off waivers by the Yankees, Weaver capitalized on his opportunity, turning it into this substantial contract. Despite a recent hamstring injury, he has demonstrated reliability as a late-inning reliever over the past two seasons.
