Mets Have Checked In On Tony Watson
3 years agoThe New York Mets are among many teams to check in on free-agent relief pitcher Tony Watson, who is one of the better left-handed relievers in the last decade. The 36-year-old has a career 2.90 ERA and could help many teams if he decides to continue his career. The Mets current top southpaws in the bullpen are Chasen Shreve and Alex Claudio. Watson, who has 32 career saves in 11 big-league seasons, had a 3.92 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, 44 strikeouts and 18 walks in 57 1/3 relief innings with the Los Angeles Angels and San Francisco Giants in 2021. If he landed in Queens, he'd serve as a lefty setup man for the Mets and would only have fantasy value in deep holds leagues.
