And general manager Billy Eppler is still open to exploring the trade market \u2014 a route he went in plucking the left-hander Raley from the Rays. <\/p>\n<p>Ottavino, 37, is expected to land a multiyear deal as one of the top relievers still available on the free-agent market after last season pitching to a 2.06 ERA in 66 appearances \u2014 a stretch in which he avoided anything close to a slump.  Team officials like the fact the Brooklyn native has shown a makeup to handle the highs and lows that go with pitching in New York, following a previous stint with the Yankees. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><figcaption>The Mets remain interested in a reunion with Adam Ottavino. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"no\" height=\"200\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm?e=NYPH2746280922&amp;light=true\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>In that regard, he is similar to the 37-year-old Robertson, whose experience includes a World Series title with the Yankees in 2009. The right-hander, who arrived on a one-year contract worth $10 million, pitched in the World Series for the Phillies last season after arriving from the Cubs at the trade deadline. <\/p>\n<div class=\"single__inline-module inline-module inline-module--newsletter alignright\">\n<div class=\"inline-module__inner\">\n<h3 class=\"inline-module__title headline headline--combo-sm-md\">\n<p>\t\t\tDelivering insights on all things Amazin&#8217;s\t\t<\/h3>\n<p class=\"inline-module__cta\">\n<p>\t\t\tSign up for Inside the Mets by Mike Puma, exclusively on Sports+\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Other names the Mets could still pursue on the free-agent market \u2014 in addition to or instead of Ottavino \u2014 include Corey Knebel, Andrew Chafin, Michael Fulmer and Craig Kimbrel. <\/p>\n<p>A key component of the Mets&#8217; bullpen in recent seasons, Seth Lugo, has received interest on the free-agent market as a starter (a role he has indicated he prefers) and does not appear likely to return. <\/p>\n<p>The Mets pursued free-agent lefty Taylor Rogers (who has a good working relationship with pitching coach Jeremy Hefner from the Twins), but were dissuaded by his price tag, prompting Eppler to shift toward Raley \u2014 whom the Mets acquired for pitching prospect Keyshawn Askew .  The lefty Raley will receive $4.5 million this season on a contract that carries a club option for 2024. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/GettyImages-1412794592.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Corey Knebel\" class=\"wp-image-24989486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/GettyImages-1412794592.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/GettyImages-1412794592.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/GettyImages-1412794592.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/GettyImages-1412794592.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><figcaption>Corey Knebel<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/Tigers_Mariners_Baseball_75027jpg-879c7.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Andrew Chafin \" class=\"wp-image-24989498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/Tigers_Mariners_Baseball_75027jpg-879c7.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/Tigers_Mariners_Baseball_75027jpg-879c7.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/Tigers_Mariners_Baseball_75027jpg-879c7.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/Tigers_Mariners_Baseball_75027jpg-879c7.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><figcaption>Andrew Chafin <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>At this point, Diaz, Robertson, Raley and Drew Smith are known quantities among the Mets relievers.
