Mets Predicted To Land $50 Million Silver Slugger As Trade Deadline Approaches
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New York Mets added to their bullpen in a huge way by adding Tyler Rogers and Ryan Helsley on Wednesday. Both are going to be huge parts of the bullpen down the stretch as New York continues to build a World Series roster. Now, the Mets need to add an outfielder with an impact bat and a solid glove. Bleacher Report's Kerry Miller recently predicted the Mets would win the Luis Robert Jr. sweepstakes in a deal that sends Luisangel Acuña and Jonathan Pintaro to the Chicago White Sox. PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA - JULY 18: Luis Robert Jr. #88 of the Chicago White Sox rounds the bases after hitting a solo home run in the fourth inning during the game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at... PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA - JULY 18: Luis Robert Jr. #88 of the Chicago White Sox rounds the bases after hitting a solo home run in the fourth inning during the game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park on July 18, 2025 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. More"To Robert's credit, he's putting together quite the 11th-hour audition tape, entering play on Wednesday with a .333/.429/.571 triple slash, three home runs and four stolen bases over his last 12 games -- in stark contrast to what had been sub-replacement-level production prior to three weeks ago," Miller wrote. "Surely, at least one of the NL East's two contenders has taken notice, as both the Mets and Phillies have managed just four home runs from center field in the entire 2025 campaign. "(Also, he went 5-for-11 as the White Sox took two out of three from the Phillies this week. They certainly noticed him.) Of the two, the Mets are arguably more likely to make it happen, provided Chicago isn't actually requesting the moon in return for its 2023 All-Star." Robert would be the perfect addition for the Mets. He's an elite baserunner with Gold Glove defense at the very least. At his best, he pairs those two traits with a bat that can slug nearly 40 home runs and 40 doubles in a healthy season. Robert has struggled at the plate this season, but the potential is still there. If the Mets can pull off a deal, there's a good chance he turns his play to the next level in Queens.

Westfields open league account with convincing home victory
WESTFIELDS got their season off to a flying start as they overcame Pershore Town 3-1 in their opening Hellenic League Premier Division fixture. On a good day for Danny Moon's side the signings of Jamie Clarke, Adam Saunston, George Clarke, Ben Johns and Dan Bufton were confirmed before the match. Fields quickly opened their league account courtesy of another summer signing Adam Sauntson. Aidan Clark hit the crossbar before Archie Muirhead was brought down, resulting in Bailey Fuller scoring from the penalty spot. Clark almost put the game to bed before the break, but headed Kane Kahaki's cross off-target. Following the break Mason Godsall went close before youngster Arwyn Walby fired into the side-netting. Godsall then turned provider as his free-kick was headed home by Cam Davies to seal the points. Pershore were rewarded for their efforts with a late goal but could not prevent Fields from a comfortable win. The win ended a summer of change at Allpay Park as Danny Moon took over as manager following the resignation of Nic Morgan. Fields' chief executive Andy Morris said: 'We were sorry to receive Nick Morgan's resignation, he did a good job for the two years in charge and we wish him well in the future. 'Danny Moon has been appointed and has a vast knowledge of the local scene and good experience at this level. 'He is an ex-Westfields player and is aware of the club's standards. We are excited with the squad Danny has assembled, he has good staff and everyone is keen for the new season. 'The Hellenic Premier is a very strong league again this season and l can envisage a good start being important as we want to be a challenging for a top six finish.' Westfields completed their pre-season preparations on Saturday with a 2-1 defeat against Southern League Premier League side Evesham United. Fields goalkeeper Jack Oxenham made two smart saves to keep the visitors at bay during the first half. Westfields then took the lead early in the second half when Bailey Fuller cut in from the right hand side and curled a shot past the goalkeeper. Oxenham could nothing to stop the visitors equaliser, courtesy of a header at the near post. Both sides then introduced substitutes for the final 15 minutes and Evesham snatched the lead with a cracking 25-yard pile driver from Ion Richards which flew into the top corner. Westfields came all out for an equaliser and Evesham survived some anxious moments in the last few minutes to win the game by a close margin of 2-1.
