The day after Thanksgiving, better known as Black Friday, is the biggest shopping day of the year, and free agent pitcher Trevor Williams took advantage of the day to sell himself.
The right-hander most recently pitched for the New York Mets after he was acquired in a trade during the 2021 season.
The ad even mentioned Williams’ alleged prowess at the plate and outfield. But Williams no longer lifts a bat because Major League Baseball adopted a universal DH last season.

The 30-year-old pitcher will likely have suitors in free agency. He is coming off a solid year in New York, where he was able to deliver quality innings for the Mets, both as a starter and as a reliever.

Williams finished with a 3.21 ERA in 30 appearances last season, including nine starts. He also struck out 84 batters and even recorded a save.
“Black Friday Free Agent Sale! Today Only! 2 for 1 Offer: Buy a Trevor Williams, the RHP, and also get Trevor Williams, the corner outfielder LHH!” Williams wrote.
A return to the Mets for the 2023 season is unlikely. According to the New York Post, the organization believes Williams will go to a team where he can be used primarily as a starter.

The Mets are also considering bringing back another free agent pitcher, two-time Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom.
Injuries limited deGrom to 26 starts over the past two seasons, but he remains widely regarded as one of the best pitchers in the league.
