4/10/25 | NL foe among 3 teams deemed candidates to sign ex-Mets slugger. Former New York Mets slugger J.D. Martinez still has not found a home this season. There's little doubt that Martinez's best days are behind him. It's hard to imagine Martinez will remain unsigned for the entire 2025 season, especially once teams begin suffering injuries to players in the middle of their lineups.

4/09/25 | MLB Network Floats Ex-Red Sox Slugger To Struggling Mariners Lineup. J.D. Martinez transformed the Boston Red Sox offense when he joined the team in 2018, won a World Series title that season and boosted the team for five seasons. MLB Network's Greg Amsinger and Harold Reynolds pointed to where Martinez could sign with the season underway. Amsinger noted the Seattle Mariners are hitting under .200 as a team. The team's failed to support an elite starting rotation even with a few capable bats in Randy Arozarena, Julio Rodriguez and Cal Raleigh.

3/27/25 | Former Chicago Cubs Star, World Champion Still Jobless as 2025 Season Starts. As the 2025 regular season begins (state side) on Thursday, it's surprising to look at major league rosters and not see either of J.D. Martinez or Anthony Rizzo on one. Martinez is a multi-time All-Star and a World Series champion who remains a free agent. Rizzo is in the same boat. The 35-year-old is coming off a down year with the New York Yankees in which he hit .228 with eight homers and 35 RBI, but it's still shocking to see him fail to get a single opportunity.

3/15/25 | Reese Kaplan -- The Mets Have Not Designated Star Hitters to be DH. Believe it or not, the Mets in 2024 finally found aggregate quality at the Designated Hitter position when combining what you received from the primary participants J.D. Martinez and Jesse Winker. While that last number is not good, the 19 HRs and 82 RBIs is far better than what the club has received in the past. Well, in 2023 the club used primarily Daniel Vogelbach and someone named Mark Vientos (yes, that Mark Vientos) to combine for 22 HRs (good), 70 RBIs (not so good) and about a .222 batting average (worse than what the team got in 2024).

3/12/25 | Mets predicted to lose $12 million 6x All-Star to Reds. The New York Mets had a busy offseason. Last year, they won 89 games, clinched a Wild Card spot and advanced all the way to the National League Championship Series. Designated hitter J.D. Martinez remains a free agent, and there isn't a spot for him with the Mets any longer. Zachary D. Rymer of Bleacher Report predicted that the veteran slugger would end up signing with the Cincinnati Reds. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/new-york-mets/... |
