The New York Mets have brought up third baseman Mark Vientos in discussions as Thursday's MLB trade deadline looms, per SNY's Andy Martino.

The New York Mets are reportedly listening to trade offers for youngster Mark Vientos. If they trade him away, what could they land in return?

The New York Mets have their eyes on a pair of centerfielders that could make an immediate impact at the trade deadline.

Vientos has been in this position before. He lost the third base battle ahead of the 2024 season and made the most out of multiple big league opportunities before finally getting his shot. Once he replaced Baty as the everyday third baseman at the end of May 2024, he quickly became the Mets’ best power hitter.

The Orioles are open for business as the trade deadline nears but Felix Bautista is off the market after an update on his injured shoulder.

New York is in a heated race in the NL East and should look to bolster both its lineup and pitching staff for the playoff push.

President of baseball operations David Stearns has singled out center field as the logical area for an offensive upgrade.

With a 5-3 loss on Sunday evening, the Giants were swept by the New York Mets. They dropped to 54-52 on the season, falling three games back of the final Wild Card spot. They’ve lost seven of their first nine games in the second half, and nine of their last 11 going back to the first half.

The New York Mets could be looking for starting pitching depth at the trade deadline. Zac Gallen of the Arizona Diamondbacks could be a rental arm they can get back on track.
