The New York Mets didn’t make a whole lot of trades this offseason. In fact, in the winter months, David Stearns has done most of his business with the wallet r

The New York Mets could be looking for outfield upgrades near the trade deadline. There have been reports about their interest in an All-Star Silver Slugger.

Besides the regulars, like right fielder Juan Soto and left fielder Brandon Nimmo, the Mets have six other players on the active roster who can play outfield — Tyrone Taylor, José Azocar and Starling Marte all call the outfield their main fielding position, while infielders Jeff McNeil, Brett Baty and Luisangel Acuña can also play it, too.

The New York Mets are shelling out top dollar in 2025 (see their $324-million payroll), and as it is now, they're receiving the desired ROI. New York's National League franchise has scorched out to a 26-15 start this season,

Despite the drama in Boston, Devers is slashing .285/.407/.494 with seven home runs, 31 RBI and a .901 OPS. Citi Field is a hitter friendly environment as well, so he could certainly fit right in with the Mets later this year if they trade for him.

He has accumulated a 2.9 WAR (Baseball Reference) season and 101 OPS+ season on his resume, and it came in 2023. Taveras has hit a ball 112.9 mph in his career, indicating he has some latent power, though he has only reached 109.8 mph this season. He’s reached 12 and 14 home runs in his career. Does Taveras have untapped upside?

Amid this news, the Mets have a decision to make. Their 2.88 team ERA is the best in baseball, but with Manaea and other key starters (Paul Blackburn, Frankie Montas) close to returning, a consolidation trade may be necessary.

Devers' stance presents a problem for the Red Sox, both as they search for an effective replacement at first base and as it seems to widen a rift between the star player and the team's front office. But Tim Boyle, writing for FanSided, suggested that a trade with the New York Mets could offer some relief.
