The New York Mets confront a challenging decision regarding reliever Luke Weaver as the MLB trade deadline approaches. Weaver, who has a 1.93 ERA with 43 strikeouts in 42 innings this season, is under contract through 2027. With his strong performance, he could attract interest from teams seeking late-game relief options, especially if other closers are not made available on the market. The Mets must weigh the benefits of trading him now against retaining him for continued success in their bullpen.
