The Mets could make one more big splash this offseason, general manager Sandy Alderson said Wednesday.
The three-time All-Star said he didn't necessarily anticipate he'd be back in a Mets uniform after he was dealt to the Cleveland Indians in August but he knew the possibility was a very real one.
The Mets actually did something concrete over the weekend. Don't get too excited. Agreeing to terms with free-agent Adrian Gonzalez won't exactly get them to the promised land.
Gonzalez was limited to 71 games last season because of a herniated disk in his back, and was left off the Los Angeles Dodgers' postseason roster.
The Mets have reached one-year deals with starters Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard and Matt Harvey and settled with five other players.
Maybe the Mets didn't get the golden log of the hot stove league -- Giancarlo Stanton -- but the signing of slugger Jay Bruce matters.
Before bringing back Jay Bruce on Wednesday night, the Mets were on the verge of acquiring second baseman Jason Kipnis from the Indians when a high-ranking team official nixed the deal, likely over money.
Jay Bruce and his proven bat are headed back to the Mets.

The Wilpons gave Sandy Alderson a pretty good Christmas gift the other day when they brought Omar Minaya back into the fold as his special assistant.

During a Twitter rant, the former Mets general manager said the onslaught of bad press and public opinion was unfair to the Wilpon family.
Mets general manager Sandy Alderson has been given a contract extension, a move that was long expected. The team announced the agreement Wednesday, but the length of his new deal was not specified.
Mickey Callaway will look like a genius if his "closer-by-committee" theory actually works for the Mets.
Yeah, it's like that. While the Yanks, who came within nine innings of the World Series, donned their Darth Vader mask by trading for NL MVP Giancarlo Stanton, the Mets are dishing about Rule 5 drafts.
New York is one of at least four teams interested in Bruce. The Colorado Rockies, Toronto Blue Jay and Seattle Mariners are also in the mix.
It appears the Mets have bolstered their bullpen. According to a report, New York has agreed to a two-year, $14 million contract with reliever Anthony Swarzak.
