I wanted Hand badly in the offseason going into 2021 although last year was beyond rough for him. Got shelled in Washington and couldn’t find the plate. He’s perfect for the Phillies

Maybe I just didn't notice his popularity because, over the years, my primary focus has shifted from "MLB" to the "New York Mets," however it always seemed to me that Brad Hand flew under-the-radar. He made a handful of All-Star teams in the late 2010s, but never earned the acclaim of guys like Craig Kimbrel, Kenley Jansen and Wade Davis.
All that to say, Hand was a great guy to take a flyer on and he paid off. He was awesome for the Mets in 2021, but like he has experienced throughout most of his career, his performance with them flew under-the-radar as the team was in the midst of crumbling when he was there.
The Mets were desperate for pitching that year—they used 42 pitchers!—and a lot of the rentals they brought on disappointed, but Hand did anything but.
I think they should have brought him back for 2022, because instead of him posting a 2.80 ERA in 55 appearances for the Mets that year, he did it for the division rival Phillies instead.
