Yankees consider trade for Mets pitcher Luke Weaver ahead of deadline

The New York Yankees are reportedly exploring trade options for Luke Weaver, a reliever currently with the New York Mets, as the MLB trade deadline approaches on August 3. The Yankees, trailing the Tampa Bay Rays by three games in the AL East standings, seek to bolster their roster for a postseason push. Weaver has performed well in 2026, posting a 1.93 ERA in 42.0 innings. The Mets, struggling with a 44-62 record, may be open to trading him to gain assets, given his solid season and continued potential.
