<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/edwin-diaz">Edwin Diaz</a>’s signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers was one of the biggest plot twists of the MLB offseason. Unfortunately for the New York Mets, it wasn’t even the worst news they learned. Just days later, Pete Alonso put pen to paper on a monstrous deal with the Baltimore Orioles.



Now, Diaz is gearing up for a crucial 2026 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb">MLB</a> season with the reigning back-to-back World Series champions. As he joins the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-dodgers">Dodgers</a>, the star reliever broke his silence on his exit from New York with an honest message to the Mets.



“We took an offer to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-mets">Mets</a> and they said they have a gap to negotiate. We took it to the Dodgers and they accepted it right away. Given they accepted it right away, I couldn’t go back to the Mets and tell them this is what the Dodgers are offering me. When the Dodgers said yes, I decided to sign with them,” Diaz told reporters in Puerto Rico about his free agency decision.



<h2>Mixed reaction</h2>



While Mets fans are still settling to the news of Diaz’ departure, the reaction from users in social media to the reliever’s thought process is quite polarized. On the one hand, many argue he didn’t give New York a fair chance to match Los Angeles’ offer.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251216_BUS_546735_edwin-diaz-with-the-mets_398852bf.webp&amp;width=1920&amp;height=1080" alt="Edwin Díaz walks to the dugout" class="wp-image-526970"></figure><figcaption>Edwin Díaz walks to the dugout on September 13, 2025 in New York City.</figcaption></figure>



Others, however, believe Diaz deserved to decide on his own. After realizing the Mets were skeptic about giving him such a deal, Diaz made the reasonable—and honestly, logical—decision to sign with the Dodgers.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/mlb-rumors-ny-mets-reportedly-identify-three-players-available-for-offseason-trade"></div>


<h2>Fresh start away from New York</h2>



Moreover, the fact the Dodgers are coming off consecutive championships whereas the Mets didn’t even make the postseason in 2025 can’t be overlooked. Though Diaz didn’t explicitly mention it, it probably played a role in him signing with the Boys in Blue.



Given how passionate the fan base in Queens is, don’t expect anyone to forget about Diaz’s decision when the Dodgers and Mets face off in a three-game series at Citi Field next season, from July 24–26.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/edwin-diaz">Edwin Diaz</a> has signed his contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, but fans have been eager for more details about why he did not re-sign with the New York Mets. Diaz himself has now shed light on the situation, revealing he had a call with Francisco Lindor, who reportedly accepted his decision.



“I spoke to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/francisco-lindor">Lindor</a> during the process,” Diaz revealed to Sports Talk PR. He further admitted that Lindor supported him: “And after I signed, he called me, and I explained the reasons why I didn’t come back to the Mets, and he understood and was happy for me.”



This may be surprising for Mets fans, but it is likely not for Lindor, as there is a possibility he was aware of the entire process, much like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/ny-mets-juan-soto-shares-his-lack-of-surprise-about-pete-alonsos-transition-to-the-orioles">Juan Soto was with the Pete Alonso situation following his move to the Orioles</a>.



<h2>Edwin Diaz reiterates focus on Dodgers</h2>



Diaz once again emphasized that the Dodgers are a winning team, stating his arrival in Los Angeles is a key moment for his career, and he feels he will perform well playing for the current World Series champions. He made the comments in Spanish to Collazo (@cmf_collazo) in Puerto Rico.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

“We have a team that’s gonna win. At this point in my career, I’m looking for a team that has the opportunity to win, and the decision was the Mets or the Dodgers. I chose the Dodgers because again, I think they’re gonna win and I’m gonna do well there.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/mlb-news-ny-mets-sign-former-phillies-outfielder-but-fans-arent-excited"></div>


Diaz’s responses regarding his move to the Dodgers have always been clear; he isn’t afraid to tell people what happened during the decision-making process. Now that it is known Lindor was aware of the process, Mets fans can at least feel assured that it was not a sudden decision to leave New York.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/edwin-diaz" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Edwin Diaz</a> has always used number 39, that was clear during his New York Mets days. However, he won’t be using his usual jersey number with the Los Angeles Dodgers. This is all you need to know about this sudden change.



The thing is the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-dodgers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dodgers</a> retired No.39 in honor of 3x MVP Roy Campanella. Hence, the number isn’t eligible and that forced Diaz to seek a new jersey number. He already has a new one.



Diaz will use the No.3 jersey because of his three sons. It’s a heartfelt dedication to Diaz’s biggest inspiration as he embarks in a new adventure with the back to back <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MLB</a> champions.



<h2>Edwin Diaz will be a huge boost to the Dodgers</h2>



The Dodgers saw their bullpen become one of their weaknesses last season. Diaz is a very good reliever. He is also a magnificent closer. The Dodgers have a good one on their hands right now.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">With No. 39 retired by the Dodgers for 3x MVP Roy Campanella, Edwin Díaz switched his jersey number to honor his three sons 👏 📸: <a href="https://twitter.com/Dodgers?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Dodgers</a> <a href="https://t.co/mWFKt2FbNx">pic.twitter.com/mWFKt2FbNx</a>— MLB (@MLB) <a href="https://twitter.com/MLB/status/1999903908903452873?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 13, 2025</a></blockquote></div><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</div></figure>



Diaz was an All-Star last season with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-mets" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mets</a>. He had a 3.0 WAR, pitched on 62 games, closing 48 of them. He had 28 saves and had 98 strikeouts and allowed 37 hits. Diaz is one of the best in the business. 


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/ny-mets-sign-former-all-star-for-40-million-as-pete-alonsos-replacement"></div>


<h2>The Dodgers hope Diaz solves their troubles</h2>



Yoshi Yamamoto had to close the World Series Game 7 because the Dodgers didn’t have any closer. Diaz is the one who should step up from now on. According to Fox Sports, Diaz was the sixth-best closer in baseball last season.



In the second half of last season, Diaz held opponents to a .158 batting average. He also had a .509 OPS and registered the highest strikeout rate among all the qualified relievers (44.3%). The Dodgers trust him so much that they paid him $69 million for the next three years.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-mets">New York Mets</a> can officially say goodbye to Edwin Diaz. Fans should not expect his return, as he has officially signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers for $69 million, putting an end to the ‘rumor’ that he might come back to help the team again.



The Dodgers made the signing official on social media, simply saying, “Welcome to Los Angeles, Edwin!,” which is a harsh blow for Mets fans who knew he was one of the team’s best pitchers, crucial for a potential 2026 postseason run. That path is now closed.



Many people wanted to see <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/edwin-diaz">Diaz</a> return to New York, especially considering that last season was his second-best with the Mets, posting a 1.63 ERA. Furthermore, it was his best season in terms of games won, with a 6-3 record, improving on his 6-4 mark from 2024.



<h2>How much will the Dodgers pay Diaz?</h2>



His contract with the Dodgers is for three years, meaning he will be paid $23 million annually. This is $3 million more than his salary with the Mets. However, taxes in California are slightly higher than those in New York, so he might end up netting a similar amount of money but with a different team.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="609" height="538" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251212_BUS_544450_image-2_6b6dc9b2.webp&amp;width=609&amp;height=538" alt="" class="wp-image-544458"></figure></figure>



With the Mets, Diaz accumulated $67.2 million in career earnings, making them the team that has paid him the most money so far. Naturally, the $69 million contract with the Dodgers will place that team first on his list of career earnings, but his contract is just beginning.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/edwin-diazs-explanation-for-choosing-the-dodgers-might-sting-ny-mets-fans"></div>


In any case, it is not the end of the world for the Mets. They still have time to look for new arms to bolster the bullpen. They now have enough salary cap space to analyze whom they can bring in for a lesser amount of money to try and fill the void left by Diaz.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-mets">New York Mets</a> enter the offseason facing a wave of challenges and opportunities. After failing to re-sign Pete Alonso and Edwin Diaz, the team has had to rethink its roster strategy while keeping fans hopeful. The Mets’ recent sweepstakes setbacks, including missing out on Robert Suarez, were underscored as the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/robert-suarezs-braves-contract-how-much-will-he-make-in-atlanta-compared-to-previous-padres-deal">Atlanta Braves signed the reliever to a three-year, $45 million contract.</a>



One name now surfacing in New York’s plans is Kyle Tucker, a top free-agent outfielder attracting interest from nearly every big-market team. Reports indicate the Mets are among the clubs actively pursuing him, aiming to make a “headline-stealing splash” to offset the high-profile departures this offseason.



While competition remains fierce, with teams like the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-dodgers">Los Angeles Dodgers</a> and Toronto Blue Jays circling, the Mets appear undeterred. MLB Insider Jon Heyman highlighted the club’s intent: “Tucker is attracting ‘most all’ big-market teams in free agency. The Dodgers like the star outfielder, but only on a shorter-term deal, per The Athletic. And the Blue Jays had an in-person meeting with Tucker last week.”



Heyman also added, “Those teams, as well as the Orioles, have been joined in the hunt for this year’s top free agent by the Mets and Yankees. Both New York teams have a hole to fill in their outfield and have also been linked to Cody Bellinger, the next-best outfielder remaining on the open market.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251212_BUS_544175_Tucker-cubs_74af32cf.webp&amp;width=1920&amp;height=1080" alt="" class="wp-image-544191"></figure><figcaption>&nbsp;Kyle Tucker #30 with the Cubs hits a home run. Photo by Tim Warner/Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Will the Mets pursue Kyle Tucker this offseason?</h2>



Heyman continued further insight into New York’s strategy, noting the team’s desire to make an impact: “The Mets may also be eyeing Tucker in an effort to make a headline-stealing splash after they saw closer Edwin Díaz join the Dodgers on a three-year deal on Tuesday, per a source.” The club is evaluating all possibilities to strengthen its outfield and complement its current roster.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/mlb-rumors-cody-bellinger-becomes-urgent-ny-mets-target-amid-rising-pressure-after-pete-alonso-exit"></div>


<h2>Competition for Tucker remains fierce</h2>



Despite their interest, the Mets face strong competition from other <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb">MLB</a> teams in pursuit of Tucker. Whether the Mets can land the talented outfielder remains uncertain, but they are clearly in the mix as they seek to rebound from an 83-79 season and a postseason miss.

NY Mets eye top free agent Tucker after losing Alonso and Díaz

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-mets">New York Mets</a> find themselves facing a precarious offseason decision, and all eyes are on Edwin Díaz. After a season marked by highs and lows, the closer’s future has become one of the hottest topics in Queens, especially as the crosstown New York Yankees appear to be circling. The Mets’ front office must weigh loyalty against financial realities and roster priorities as they enter a critical free agency period.



Throughout 2025, the Yankees’ bullpen faltered dramatically, dropping from the sixth-ranked ERA in 2024 (3.62) to 23rd in the league at 4.37. Even midseason reinforcements and the addition of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/devin-williams">Devin Williams</a> could not fully stabilize the relief corps. 



While the rumors swirl, the stakes are clear. Díaz, coming off a five-year, $102 million deal, has shown he can excel under pressure in New York, and the Yankees could view him as a key piece to regain their bullpen’s former strength. 



<h2>Could Edwin Díaz join the Yankees this offseason?</h2>



The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">Yankees</a> are exploring the possibility of adding Díaz to their roster, alongside plans to address other needs like a starting pitcher and an outfielder. As Ken Rosenthal noted, “While they are set with David Bednar as their closer, they also face the losses of two high-leverage relievers in Williams and Luke Weaver, and Díaz is proven in New York.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251115_BUS_527197_edwin-diaz_ab38b0da.webp&amp;width=1920&amp;height=1080" alt="" class="wp-image-527202"></figure><figcaption>Edwin Díaz #39 of the Mets pitches against the Marlins. Tomas Diniz Santos/Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



<h2>How did Díaz perform in 2025?</h2>


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/ny-mets-juan-soto-shares-candid-thoughts-on-pete-alonso-amid-offseason-questions"></div>


Díaz’s 2025 campaign reaffirmed his elite status. Over 62 outings, he recorded a 1.63 ERA with 28 saves, proving he can dominate in high-leverage situations. At 31 years old, his combination of experience and familiarity with the pressures of New York makes him a coveted option for any contender seeking stability in the back end of the bullpen.



<h2>What’s next for the Mets and their closer?</h2>



The Mets will face tough choices regarding salary allocation and roster construction this winter. Whether Díaz remains in Queens or joins a division rival, his next contract and performance will play a pivotal role in shaping the team’s trajectory for 2026. The offseason is only beginning, but decisions on key players like Díaz will dominate headlines in the coming weeks.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pete-alonso">Pete Alonso</a> didn’t hold back after the New York Mets were officially eliminated from the playoff race. The star first baseman confirmed he will opt out and become a free agent this offseason, while also taking a moment to reflect on his deep connection with the franchise.



“Playing for this organization, this city—they’ve continued to believe in me. I love playing here,” Alonso said via SNY. “Every single day, it’s been a pleasure coming to work and putting on the orange and blue.” His words carried both gratitude and uncertainty as he looks toward the future.



Alonso added that he takes pride in what he has accomplished with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-mets">Mets</a>. “I’ve grown up in this organization. What I’ve done here, I’m really proud of the mark I’ve left,” he said. The slugger emphasized that he wants to be remembered as both a strong teammate and a player who represented the fans with passion.



Still, the sting of missing the postseason was obvious. “It’s beyond frustration, it’s just straight up disappointing,” Alonso admitted. “Super talented team, and the reality is we fell short. We didn’t even get to October.” For a Mets squad that finished 0-67 when trailing after eight innings, it was another bitter end in what Gary Cohen called “one of the most disappointing years” in team history.

<h2>Edwin Díaz still weighing his future</h2>



While Alonso made his decision clear, Edwin Díaz admitted he hasn’t yet thought about opting out of his contract. The closer ended his season with an impressive 1.63 ERA, but said if he does test the market, he would “love” to return to the Mets.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/brutal-reactions-pour-in-after-mets-eliminated-from-playoff-race-by-marlins"></div>


“I love this organization—they’ve treated me really, really good,” Díaz said. His words reflect a more cautious tone compared to Alonso, leaving fans to wonder how the team will approach two of their biggest names in an offseason full of questions.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New York Yankees</a>‘ fan base is embroiled in debate over the team’s performance, as expectations have not been met. July was particularly rough, with a string of disappointing performances widening their loss column rather than their win tally. Meanwhile, across the city, the New York Mets celebrated one of their own being named the National League Reliever of the Month for his standout performance.



While fans acknowledge that it’s not uncommon for the Yankees to endure a slump during the regular season, the current downturn is fueling concern among supporters and the MLB community alike. Despite capitalizing on opportunities before the MLB trade deadline, the team’s performance remains lackluster.



The recent series loss to the Miami Marlins has intensified scrutiny over their postseason prospects. The Yankees trail the Toronto Blue Jays by 4.5 games, with the Boston Red Sox nipping at their heels, just 1.5 games behind in the American League East standings.



Within this context, fans are discussing the Player of the Month awards, a conversation that notably excludes Yankees players. In contrast, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-mets" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mets</a>‘ Edwin Diaz has garnered recognition as the National League Reliever Player of the Month, capping a successful July for the team.

<h2>Fans react to Yankees’ struggling July</h2>



While New York’s baseball teams experience contrasting fortunes this season, Yankees fans have taken to social media to air their frustrations. Comments abound, illustrating a fan base disenchanted with their team’s lackluster performances throughout the past month.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/after-jeter-and-a-rod-criticism-aaron-boone-offers-quiet-defense-of-yankees"></div>


From humorous quips like, “Can we have a Rotten Tomatoes sponsored Craptastic Team of the Month? The Yankees are runaway favorites,” to more direct critiques such as, “Yankees win losers of the month,” the sentiment is clear. The team’s 12-13 record in July, including a decisive 3-0 series defeat against the Toronto Blue Jays, is a major point of contention.



<h2>Edwin Diaz shines for the Mets</h2>



In stark contrast to the Yankees’ struggles, the Mets turned in a solid 14-11 record in July, bolstered by Diaz’s remarkable performance. Diaz’s efforts earned him the coveted Reliever of the Month title in the National League.



During the past month, Diaz appeared in 10 games, pitching 11 innings with an impressive stat line: allowing only 4 hits and 4 walks. Most notably, he did not concede any runs, home runs, or earned runs, and tallied 18 strikeouts. His contributions were crucial as the Mets closed out July on a high note.

One of the most anticipated matchups came in the last day of activitites for Pool D when Puerto Rico faced the Dominican Republic. In a win or go home scenario, the battle was just spectacular at LoanDepot Park in Miami.
Puerto Rico advanced to the quarterfinals in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/World-Baseball-Classic-Mike-Trout-on-his-nasty-teammate-Shohei-Ohtani-20230120-0027.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">World Baseball Classic</a> thanks to a 5-2 victory.

<h2>Edwin Diaz will miss the 2023 MLB season with the New York Mets</h2>
The images were just incredible at Miami. Edwin Diaz seemed to be jumping normally close to the mound during the celebration with his teammates, when suddenly he fell to the ground.

Edwin Diaz tore the patellar tendon in his right knee during the celebration with Puerto Rico. The star closer needs surgery and is expected to miss the entire 2023 season. For the New York Mets, this is just devastating. Last year, Edwin Diaz was spectacular with the Mets. He had 32 saves in 35 opportunities and an amazing 1.31 ERA in 61 total appearances.
This was the official statement from the New York Mets. “Edwin Diaz underwent imaging today that revealed a full-thickness tear of the patellar tendon in his right knee. He will have surgery today performed by Dr. David Altchek.”
