If the Mets BELIEVE in Carson Benge, EXTEND Him! | The Case for a Pre-Arb Extension to Start 2026

New York Mets set the stage for a big 2026 with Carson Benge as their potential everyday left fielder—will the team lock up their prized prospect with a pre-arbitration extension? Excitement grows as David Stearns expresses unwavering confidence in Benge, prompting questions about service time manipulation, PPI eligibility, and the blueprint for early-career deals that could shape the future of the franchise. Ryan Finkelstein breaks down recent trends in MLB contract extensions, examining deals like Luis Robert’s six-year, $50 million contract, Jackson Chourio’s record-setting pre-debut pact, and the unique incentives around the prospect promotion incentive (PPI). Key topics include the strategic impact of Benge’s service time decisions, historical extension precedents, and the Mets’ outfield roster with stars like Juan Soto and Luis Robert. Can the Mets maximize both Benj’s talent and their draft capital as Opening Day approaches? Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
