The New York Mets picked up right-hander Carlos Carrasco’s $14 million option for 2023.
The move, announced Thursday by the club, gives the Mets at least two starters from their 2022 rotation. Max Scherzer is also under contract for 2023.
The New York Post reported Thursday that the Mets will not extend the qualifying offer of $19.65 million to Taijuan Walker, the team’s No. 5 starter in 2022.
