BRONX, NY — The attached article from The Athletic/New York Times raises an interesting scenario that a perfect storm could be brewing for Puerto Rican star closer Edwin Díaz, who is currently a free agent and looking for another mega-contract on the open market.
Would Díaz part ways with the New York Mets, a team that still needs him, in a city that has grown to love him, and begin a new journey in another market, or return to Flushing, Queens as the anchor in the ‘pen he’s proven to be year-in and year-out?
Also, what teams out there are the most interested and would benefit the most with Díaz in their bullpen?

The 31-year-old of Naguabo, Puerto Rico, on his way to winning his third career National League LatinoMVP Reliever of the Year Award, recently named the Trevor Hoffman Award recipient for NL Reliever of the Year by the BBWAA, would be an asset to any team in need of a flamethrower, who is willing to spend the money.
One thing we have learned is that in today’s world of Major League Baseball, one should be prepared to “expect the unexpected.”
