sportingnews.com

The New York Mets are reportedly considering a trade for Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes. Skenes, a Cy Young winner, may be disgruntled after the Pirates extended another player without addressing his contract. The Mets have a strong farm system and could use it to acquire him if contract talks with Freddy Peralta stall. The Pirates face a tricky situation with Skenes, who is eligible for arbitration and could command a significant salary, potentially around $30 million.
