Because he's still locked and loaded for two more years with the Mets, so they can get teams bidding over themselves this offseason, if they want them to, and not feel rushed by a deadline.
He's stated he's wanted an extension and waiting until now to give it to him seems like a foolish idea, he only got more expensive now.
