Ryan Helsley has over a dozen free agency suitors after ugly Mets stint
NY Post
Ryan Helsley is drawing significant interest despite a horrid two months with the Mets.
Helsley, 31, has seen interest from roughly 15 teams, which includes the Tigers, The Athletic reported Tuesday.
A number of teams reportedly talked about multi-year deals with the righty as a setup man or closer. The Tigers view Helsley as a possible starter.
The news that Helsley was drawing interest from so many organizations comes after he had a disastrous time in Queens after being acquired at the trade deadline from the Cardinals.
He posted a 7.20 ERA in 22 appearances with the Mets as he dealt with pitch-tipping issues.
“There is a lot of talent this year in free agency, and it’s exciting in itself to be in this position,” Helsley told The Athletic. “You work for seven years to get to this point and have a chance to experience it, so I’m very thankful and grateful for that. Hopefully, teams see there was an issue but my stuff is still there.”
