Similar Stories to Mets Continue Expanding Payroll After Signing Brandon Nimmo, David Robertson on Bing News

The Mets blew past the luxury tax benchmark with their splashy Winter Meetings acquisitions and general manager Billy Eppler promised even more talent. One day after the meetings wrapped up, the club made good on that promise by re-signing outfielder Brandon Nimmo to an eight-year, $162 million contract and reliever David Robertson to a one-year, $10 million contract. The opening day payroll is projected at $325 million and the club is reportedly still pursuing Japanese pitcher Kodai Senga. This sends a clear message to the fanbase and to the rest of baseball: The Mets are all-in on pursuing a World Series this year and beyond, and they will spend whatever is necessary to get there.
