Mets sign Juan Lagares to a 4-year extension worth just north of $20 million or so with a club option for 2020. He was going to be Super 2 eligible next offseason, so this deal basically covers all four arbitration years and the option for his first year of free agency.
Thrilled by this news. Lagares is so ridiculously fun to watch defensively, and I'm expecting him to take big strides in the leadoff role as well.
