The New York Mets have made headlines again by securing a deal with J.D. Martinez, one of the biggest offensive powerhouses on the market. The deal is said to be worth a whopping $12 million and is set for a year, subject to a physical examination. This news was first broken by Jon Heyman from The Post. According to a reliable industry insider, the agreement stipulates that Martinez will be receiving $4.5 million this season.
