New York Mets view reliever Luke Weaver as top trade chip

The New York Mets are projected to be sellers at the upcoming trade deadline, with reliever Luke Weaver emerging as the most valuable asset. Weaver boasts a 1.89 ERA in 36 appearances and is under contract through 2027, making him an attractive acquisition for teams like the Chicago White Sox or Pittsburgh Pirates. By contrast, starter Freddy Peralta has struggled with a 4.66 ERA and will become a free agent after the 2026 season, reducing his trade appeal.
