Mets Could be Sellers at the Trade Deadline
The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal said on Foul Territory that the New York Mets, who currently sit at 22-32 and in last place in the National League East, could be sellers at this year's trade deadline for the second time in three years. The Mets have the second-highest payroll in baseball, behind only the Los Angeles Dodgers. They were swept by the division-rival Miami Marlins over the weekend and entered play on Tuesday 14 games out of first place in their division and 7.5 games out of an NL wild-card spot. The Mets still have a number of injured star players on the injured list that aren't close to a return, and young right-hander Nolan McLean has struggled so far in 2026. President of baseball operations David Stearns previously said the Mets aren't considering selling yet, but it's getting late pretty fast in Queens. If New York does decide to sell this year, right-hander Freddy Peralta will be their biggest chip. Right-hander Clay Holmes (leg) also would have been an attractive piece, but he's now on the 60-day injured list with a fractured right fibula.
