Mets Acquire All-Star Outfielder Cedric Mullins from Orioles in Deadline Deal

The New York Mets acquired center fielder Cedric Mullins from the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for three minor league pitchers (Raimon Gómez, Anthony Nunez, and Chandler Marsh) ahead of the MLB trade deadline. Mullins, a 30-year-old former All-Star, provides a significant upgrade in center field for the Mets, offering speed and strong defense. He is batting .229 with 15 homers and 14 stolen bases this season, with improved offensive production in July, and is set to become a free agent after the current season.
