The Mets shored up their starting pitching staff by awarding a three-year contract to left-hander Sean Manaea this week and adding depth with right-hander Griffin Canning last week.

Sean Manaea is coming back home. After a season of reinvention in Flushing – one where he went from reclamation project to staff ace – Manaea and the Mets decided to run it back, agreeing to a three-year, $75 million contract, pending a physical, a source confirmed.

Manaea, who turns 33 in February, went 12-6 with a 3.47 ERA and 184 strikeouts over a career-high 181.2 innings in 2024, and he was particularly dominant as the season wore on.
