NEW YORK (AP) — Center fielder Tyrone Taylor and the New York Mets agreed Friday to a $3.8 million, one-year contract that avoided salary arbitration.
New York chose not to offer 2026 contracts to a trio of relief pitchers: right-hander Max Kranick and left-handers José Castillo and Danny Young. All three became free agents ahead of Friday’s non-tender deadline.
The speedy Taylor has spent the past two seasons with the Mets after being acquired from Milwaukee in a trade. He made 85 starts in center field this year and two in left, providing excellent defense but batting a career-low .223 with two homers, 27 RBIs and a career-worst .598 OPS in 113 games.
The 28-year-old Kranick was 3-2 with a 3.65 ERA in 24 appearances out of the bullpen this year before season-ending surgery to repair his right flexor tendon.
Young, 31, had a 4.32 ERA in 10 outings prior to season-ending Tommy John surgery.
Castillo, who turns 30 in January, pitched for the Diamondbacks, Mets, Mariners and Orioles this year, going a combined 2-2 with a 3.94 ERA in 29 games. He ended the season with Baltimore, then was claimed off waivers by the Mets on Nov. 6.
