Summary
The Mets are quietly betting on a comeback with veteran outfielder Christopher Morel, signing him to a minor league deal as they navigate a rough season and prepare for the trade deadline. At 27, Morel brings power (74 homers since 2022) and versatility, having played for the Cubs, Rays, and Marlins — though his Marlins stint was underwhelming. With opt-out clauses and a Triple-A assignment, he’s chasing a fresh start and a shot at the majors, potentially filling outfield, first base, or DH roles — a low-risk gamble for a team looking to rebuild through the roster.
