NEW YORK -- The New York Mets agreed to one-year contracts with eight
players Friday to avoid salary arbitration, including shortstop
Francisco Lindor, outfielder Michael Conforto and first
baseman-outfielder Dominic Smith.
Lindor will earn $22.3 million and Conforto gets $12.25 million in
their final years before potentially becoming free agents. Smith
agreed to a $2.55 million deal in his first year eligible for
arbitration.
Outfielder Brandon Nimmo ($4.7 million) and right-handers Edwin Díaz
($7 million), Seth Lugo ($2,925,00), Miguel Castro ($1,687,500) and
Robert Gsellman ($1.3 million) also agreed to one-year deals.

All vital pieces to the big puzzle, except Diaz who counts as a maybe.
