With Edwin Diaz already showing excellent performances on the mound in 2025, the New York Mets could become completely dominant in MLB after completing the trade of a closer who will undoubtedly be of great help to them for the rest of the season.
The Mets are leaders in the National League East ahead of the Phillies, Marlins, Braves and Nationals. However, their 62 wins does not position them as high as it might seem in the overall standings, as they are sixth behind the Dodgers, Detroit, Blue Jays, Chicago and Brewers.
Ryan Helsley arrives at Mets after deal with Cardinals
The Mets acquired two-time All-Star reliever Ryan Helsley from the St. Louis Cardinals in exchange for three minor league players, it was announced Wednesday. Although he was one of the best closers in baseball, Helsley was expected to serve as a setup man for the Mets’ star closer Edwin Diaz
The Mets began the restructuring of their bullpen in midseason last Friday with the acquisition of left-hander Gregory Soto from the Baltimore Orioles. The three veterans should bolster a relief corps that has been hampered by injuries and overuse over the past two months.
Tyler Rogers, the other player who arrived at the Mets from the Giants
The Mets also added right-handed submariner Tyler Rogers from the Giants to give their bullpen a different look. New York sends Triple-A Syracuse teammates – and once University of Tennessee teammates – Blade Tidwell and Drew Gilbert plus major league reliever Jose Butto to San Francisco in the trade.
Rogers has perhaps the most unique look in MLB. He is a true submarine reliever whose knuckles almost scrape the ground as he pitches. Rogers leads MLB with 53 appearances this season, as he has done three times before, including a high of 80 in 2021.

Aaron Rodgers on Roman Wilson: Steelers are ‘Going to Hold Him to High Standard’
Second-year Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson is turning heads this summer, and that includes the one who will be throwing him passes."I think he’s improving every day. You can’t skew the results from the details. You look at his game the other night, he made a couple splash plays. But we’re going to coach him hard," Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said about Wilson on Tuesday, according to Pro Football Talk. "His receiver coach, [offensive coordinator] Art [Smith], and myself on the details, because the details are what make the difference. And even though he had a couple of big plays, there’s some room for improvement there."Wouldn’t say anything if we just thought he was going to be a guy, just any guy that you could throw in. But I think he has a chance to be a big-time talent […]
Štybar stále nechápe Evenepoelův konec: Měl dojet do cíle. V Boře se asi škrábou na hlavě
Štybar se pustil do Evenepoela ihned po jeho odstoupení z průběžné třetí příčky ve 14. etapě Tour, jelikož v tentýž den komentoval přenos pro britskou televizi TNT. A jeho kritika vzbudila u cyklistických fanoušků řadu souhlasných, ale i nesouhlasných reakcí.Za svým názorem si 39letý rodák z Plané stojí i nyní. Navzdory tomu, že se Belgičan posléze rozpovídal o trápeních v přípravě i četných zdravotních problémech. „Když už víme okolnosti, situaci to trochu vysvětluje. Ale v daném momentu jsem byl přesvědčený, že měl zkusit dojet do cíle. A za tím si vlastně stojím i teď,“ prohlásil Štybar.„I kdyby chytil 20 minut ztrátu, měl se s týmem rozhodovat až v cíli, jestli závod vzdá. Zbývala už jen nedělní etapa do volného dne. Šanci přežít do pondělí určitě měl, pak se mohl dát trochu do kupy,“ mínil Štybar.Roli podle něj hrála očekávaná změna týmu. „Myslím, že měl v hlavě rozhodnutí, že odchází do Bory. Podle mě to musel vědět. S jeho charakterem […]
