MLB Rumors: Yankees' Plan B to Bellinger; Tucker Meets with Dodgers, Mets, Blue Jays
The Mets, Dodgers, and Blue Jays are competing to sign Kyle Tucker, a 28-year-old outfielder with a strong career track record despite recent injuries.
- On Sunday, Jim Duquette reported that the Los Angeles Dodgers, Toronto Blue Jays and New York Mets have all met with free-agent outfielder Kyle Tucker in person or via Zoom.
- Teams are pursuing Tucker because, at 29, he combines power, plate discipline, defense, and baserunning that rank him as the top free agent.
- After an injury-hit 2025 season, Kyle Tucker finished with a.266/.377/.464 slash line, 22 home runs, 73 RBI and a 4.6 bWAR in 136 games for the Chicago Cubs.
- The contract market suggests Kyle Tucker will command between $300 million and $400 million, with the Los Angeles Dodgers likely using deferred money to finalize a deal.
- With the market slow, reports say the three teams may increase offers and Tucker would reshape the Mets' 2026 roster after losing Alonso, Diaz, Nimmo, and McNeil.
