Mets' Outfield Shuffle: Is Starling Marte on the Trading Block? 

The New York Mets are in an interesting position with Starling Marte. With the recent signing of Juan Soto and a crowded outfield, Marte seems to be the odd man out. The Mets are reportedly open to trading him, even willing to pay down part of his contract to facilitate a deal. This raises some intriguing questions about the future of both Marte and the Mets.

What do you think the Mets should do with Marte? Should they trade him to a team that could use his experience, or is it worth keeping him around for depth, even if he’s not a regular starter?

Let’s not forget that Marte is coming off a season where he posted average numbers, but his speed and defensive capabilities have taken a hit. Is he still a valuable asset, or has he become more of a liability?

And if he does get traded, which teams would be the best fit for him? The Red Sox, Guardians, and even his former team, the Pirates, have been mentioned as potential suitors. Would a change of scenery reignite his career, or is he past his prime?

Let’s hear your thoughts! What bold predictions do you have for Marte’s future? Will he thrive elsewhere, or is this the beginning of the end for the two-time All-Star?
