Key points
  • Stock signed with the Mets during the 2025 offseason on a minor league contract and missed a good amount of time this past season due to surgery that was needed to address his arterial thoracic outlet syndrome.
  • It is highly unlikely that he is used as part of the rotation, though, and it will be interesting to see how good a spring training he has to see if he ends up solidifying a spot in the Mets bullpen.

  • One thing that remains true is the Mets will have plenty of depth come next season, and Stock is the first of many to be signed for 2027.
  • He has shown he is not afraid of tough spots, and he should be helpful for a Mets bullpen that has a few question marks at the moment.
  • The Last Word Re-signing Stock shows that the Mets are still focused on depth just as much as they are focused on improving the team.
  • He may also get some time if injuries start to build up, as we have seen in the past with the Mets (especially this past season).
