The New York Mets should take a chance on this veteran pitcher in free agency.
Pat Ragazzo argues that the New York Mets should target free-agent starting pitcher Shane Bieber to reinforce the back of their rotation. While the Mets pursue frontline arms like Tarik Skubal, the writer suggests Bieber could serve as a valuable fifth starter and provide insurance by shifting veteran Sean Manaea to the bullpen.
Bieber carries injury risks after undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2024 and dealing with elbow and shoulder inflammation that limited him to 11 starts last season. However, Ragazzo suggests a one-year, low-risk, high-reward free agent contract could offer substantial upside for New York's pitching staff.
