The New York Mets are re-signing left-hander Sean Manaea to a three-year, $75 million contract, multiple outlets reported Monday.
Manaea, 32, posted 12 wins to match his career high along with a 3.47 ERA over 32 starts during his first season with the Mets in 2024. He struck out 184 batters in 181 2/3 innings.
The deal is pending the result of a physical for Manaea, who opted out of the second year of the $28 million deal he signed last winter and rejected New York’s $21.05 million qualifying offer.
A first-round pick by the Kansas City Royals in 2013, Manaea is 77-62 with a 4.00 ERA in 228 games (198 starts) with the A’s (2016-21), San Diego Padres (2022), San Francisco Giants (2023) and Mets.
Manaea made four postseason starts for the Mets in 2024, going 2-1 with a 4.74 ERA and 19 strikeouts in 19 innings.
