The New York Mets have agreed to a two-year, $40 million contract with switch-hitting infielder Jorge Polanco, who is departing the Seattle Mariners after a resurgent 2025 season. Polanco is expected to fill the first base role vacated by Pete Alonso's departure to the Orioles. The signing comes amid roster reshaping for the Mets following losses of key players like Edwin Díaz and Brandon Nimmo.
The New York Yankees have added depth at shortstop by signing nine-year veteran Paul DeJong to a minor-league contract, according to a report. This move comes as Anthony Volpe recovers from shoulder surgery. DeJong, a former All-Star, brings versatility and power potential to the infield.
