The New York Mets are moving quickly this offseason to re-sign a pitcher, according to Yahoo Sports, in what appears to be an early effort to patch up a roster that left fans frustrated after last year's offseason moves.

Yahoo Sports reports that David Stearns, the Mets' president of baseball operations, drew heavy criticism and anger from the fanbase last offseason after decisions that gutted a significant part of the team's identity. The latest move to retain a pitcher early in this year's offseason suggests the front office is working to address those lingering frustrations.

Details on the full scope of the deal were not specified in the report, but the timing signals the Mets are prioritizing pitching depth as they look ahead to next season.
