Jeff McNeil is staying in Queens for several more years.
The New York Mets agreed to a four-year, $50 million contract extension with the second baseman on Friday, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan. The deal is pending a physical and includes a fifth-year club option that could take the value to $63.75 million.
McNeil is coming off one of the best seasons of his career. He hit .326 and won the National League batting title. The 30-year-old is a career .307 hitter over five seasons with the club.
