An MLB insider believes the Mets’ revamped lineup may equal their former core in run production, signaling a major offensive shift for 2026.

Phillies officials reportedly went to bed on Thursday night believing they were nearing an agreement with All-Star Bo Bichette.

However, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, the Mets are not likely to sign Bellinger. With the New York Yankees offer already on the table, the Mets are not expected to be able to beat it and will more likely than not lose out on Bellinger as well.

Recent New York Mets rumors point out why a trade with the Boston Red Sox for Jarren Duran appear unlikely at the moment.

After the New York Mets swung and missed on free out outfielder Kyle Tucker, the front office pivoted to a new splashy signing: Bo Bichette.

After the Mets swooped in with a three-year, $126 million deal for Bichette, the Phillies immediately made a pivot of their own, agreeing to a deal with Realmuto.
