The New York Mets are preparing to sell players at the upcoming trade deadline after a disappointing season. Reports indicate that only five players are off-limits: Carson Benge, A.J. Ewing, Christian Scott, Nolan McLean, and Juan Soto. Francisco Lindor's trade potential is complicated by his contract and performance issues. The Mets aim to build a younger team around Soto, allowing teams to inquire about other players like Freddy Peralta and Clay Holmes.
