Could Rafael Devers getting traded to the San Francisco Giants impact Mets slugger Pete Alonso's future free agency?

Mets outfielder suffers impactful setback in rehab — will it result in more aggressiveness in trade talks? It was the kind of fluke that changes the course of a season — a foul ball off a foot in mid-April. When Jose Siri crumpled after that swing on April 12, it didn’t just crack his left tibia. It cracked the New York Mets ’ plans.

The trade deadline is 50 days away, and the Mets are feeling good. New York’s 5-0 win over the Nationals Wednesday pushed them 20 games over .500, good for first in the National League East. But the Mets need only look back 365 days to know how much can change for a team from the start of June until the trade deadline at the end of July.

If Boston decides to commit to a youth movement after the Rafael Devers trade, outfielder Jarren Duran could be a good trade target for the New York Mets to pursue.

A trade idea from Joel Sherman of the New York Post would reunite the New York Mets with Texas Rangers star Jacob deGrom.

"Kodai Senga is injured," MLB .com's Anthony DiComo reported. "He took a fall at first base attempting to beat a runner to the bag, and he spent a long time down on the ground surrounded by coaches and trainers."

The Mets have kept concerns over the depth of their bullpen to a minimum, but potential issues linger in the background of their success.

Despite a sweep at the hands of the Tampa Bay Rays, the 45-27 Mets still have the best record in the National League. But the Rays exposed that on any given weekend, the Mets' offense and pitching staff can go cold at a moment's notice.
