NEW YORK — Sean Manaea was taken by the New York Mets’ family feeling, just like Juan Soto. “I thought that it was a perfect fit. I know Talat, my wife now, she loved it on the family side, as well,” Manaea said Monday during a Zoom call to discuss his $75 million, three-year contract with the Mets that was announced Dec. 27 .

A new MLB rumor suggests Sean Manaea may have passed on a better offer in free agency to return to the New York Mets. For most Mets fans, the organization signing Sean Manaea last offseason was met with shoulder shrugs and little interest.

Manaea has always thrown a changeup, but after he added a sweeper in the middle of 2023 while with the San Francisco Giants, he began to rely on the pitch more heavily at the start of 2024. The changeup took a back seat.

During the offseason, Manaea has worked out with Pete Alonso in Tampa. The two are close friends. Predictably, Manaea said he “very much” hopes the Mets and Alonso can work out a deal. “Whatever happens with Pete, I’m always going to support him,” Manaea said, “but I would definitely love to have him back on the Mets and be our first baseman.”

Sean Manaea’s three-year, $75 million deal was a significant part of what’s been a busy Mets offseason so far — and he hopes it’s not done.

The Mets reintroduced the popular left-hander Monday afternoon in a Zoom conference, officially announcing his three-year, $75 million contract.
