Mets eyeing Kris Bryant in free agency

We're all still waiting for the MLB lockout to end, but once it does, some big names will look to come off the board in free agency. Star third baseman Kris Bryant is looking for a new home, with multiple clubs being linked to his name.

One of interest are the New York Mets. This team had high expectations in 2021, but they disappointed in a big way. Moving forward, though, Steve Cohen could try and land Bryant.

Industry source l spoke with sees Kris Bryant or Michael Conforto as the 2 most realistic bat options for the Mets since both are solid defenders and neither tied to QO. Door isn't shut yet on KB or Confortohttps://t.co/PhloY3aPFv

This would be a strong get and make the Mets infield even more impressive. Only time will tell if the Mets are serious here, but fans would welcome KB with open arms.
