Mets Make Mark Vientos Decision After Luis Robert Jr. Trade Report originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Right-handed slugger Mark Vientos is in his fourth season with the New York Mets after making his debut in 2022.

New York Mets corner infielder Mark Vientos is in the midst of a disappointing season, one in which he's failed to build on last year's momentum. Predictably, Vientos has found himself the subject of recent trade rumors leading up to the July 31 deadline -- a dynamic he opted to talk about with reporters on Monday.

SNY insider Andy Martino reports that the New York Mets have been discussing third baseman Mark Vientos in trade talks and appear willing to move him this week. While not an aggressive sell-off, the conversations mark a shift in how the organization is weighing its infield options heading into the trade deadline.
