The New York Mets have signed right-handed pitcher Luis Severino to a one-year, $13 million deal. The 29-year-old pitcher had a tough season in 2023, going 4-8 with a 6.65 ERA in 89.1 innings pitched, but has been a two-time All-Star and a previous top-10 finisher for the Cy Young Award. The Mets see Severino as a high-risk, high-reward opportunity and believe he can bounce back. They still need to work on their rotation and are in the market for more pitching help. Severino spent the last eight seasons with the New York Yankees and has struggled with injuries in recent years, including Tommy John surgery in 2020 and an oblique injury that ended his 2023 season in September. The Mets had a disappointing 2023 season, finishing 75-87 and failing to make the playoffs. The team is hoping that Severino’s addition will help strengthen their rotation and improve their performance next season.
