Mets expected to trade Mark Vientos to AL Central team this offseason
Summary

The New York Mets are anticipated to be active in trades this offseason after being eliminated from postseason contention for the second consecutive year. First baseman Mark Vientos, who has recorded 13 home runs in 2026, could be one of the players moved as the team seeks improvements. Sources suggest the Minnesota Twins may pursue Vientos as they look to fill a potential void at first base or designated hitter. A key factor for teams interested in Vientos is his contract status, as he remains under team control through 2030.
