Omar Narvaez spent the last three seasons with the Brewers. The 32-year-old, who has been hailed for his work with the Mets’ pitching staff, has had two rough seasons offensively since signing a four-year, $40.6 million contract, which has two years and $24 million remaining. The Mets could carry three catchers but might also look to off-load one in a trade, depending on how the market plays out.Įven before Narvaez’s arrival, McCann figured to be a possible trade candidate. The soon-to-be 31-year-old Narvaez joins James McCann and Tomas Nido as Mets catchers under contract, along with the club’s top prospect, 21-year-old Francisco Alvarez, who is expected to push for playing time in 2023 after making his MLB debut late last season.

Narvaez, one of the game’s top pitch framers and a left-handed bat, added to Steve Cohen’s spending spree but also elicited questions about the Mets’ plans behind the plate for next season, possibly with another shoe to drop. Omar Narvaez, an All-Star catcher in 2021, agreed to a one-year, $8 million deal with the Mets that includes a $7 million player option for 2024, The Post’s Joel Sherman and Jon Heyman confirmed.
