Signs with Mets
Tonkin signed a one-year, $1 million contract with the Mets on Tuesday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2023 campaign marked Tonkin's return to the majors after six seasons, and he logged a 4.28 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with a 75:23 K:BB across 80 innings. The 34-year-old righty will likely operate as a multi-inning reliever in a Mets bullpen that struggled to find consistent success last season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2015
2014
Tonkin finally became a regular in the Minnesota bullpen last season after dominating at Triple-A and failing to stick in the majors the previous two years. Unfortunately, he struggled with the long ball as he allowed 12 home runs and had an ugly 5.02 ERA. However, there are some encouraging signs as he had a 10.1 K/9 and his long ball problems may have been due to a 16.0 percent HR/FB. He'll need to improve against left-handed batters as he allowed a 1.061 OPS to lefties, but Tonkin will attempt to stay in the majors and win a bullpen role again this spring.
