It looks like the Mets owner is waiting on Kyle Tucker’s decision before moving forward with the next move. A recent post says Steve Cohen is “waiting on Kyle Tucker’s decision,” which fits the current buzz around the Mets making a serious push for Tucker.

What that means

  • The “wait” is probably about free agency or a contract choice rather than ownership itself.
  • In other words, the Mets may be holding their next roster move until Tucker decides whether he’s signing elsewhere or interested in New York.

Why this matters

  • Kyle Tucker is being treated as a major target, so his decision could affect the Mets’ offseason plan.
  • If Tucker signs, the team’s spending and lineup strategy could shift quickly; if he doesn’t, they likely pivot to other options.

Context

Steve Cohen has repeatedly been portrayed as aggressive and willing to spend, so this kind of waiting usually means the Mets are in the middle of a bigger negotiation rather than simply standing still. The public chatter right now is basically: the Mets are ready, and they’re waiting to see what Tucker does next.

The bottom line: he’s likely waiting on Kyle Tucker’s call, not waiting in a general sense.
