Mets trade Brooks Raley to Phillies for two minor league pitchers

The New York Mets traded left-handed reliever Brooks Raley to the Philadelphia Phillies on August 3, 2026. In return, the Mets acquired two minor league arms: John Spikerman, a potential utility player known for his defense, and Luke Gabrysh, a 23-year-old right-hander with a promising pitch mix despite a rough ERA. This marks Raley as the third rental player dealt by the Mets this season, with some analysts suggesting the return could be better, given Raley's recent performance since returning from injury. Full evaluations of the Mets' trades are expected in the coming week.
