The White Sox traded Luis Robert Jr. to the Mets and received Luisangel Acuña and a fringe 12th‑round signee, a deal many view as a missed chance after Robert’s 2023 breakout.

The Mets and White Sox agreed to a deal sending outfielder Luis Robert Jr. to New York in exchange for rookie infielder Luisangel Acuña and minor league right-hander Truman Pauley, ending years of Robert trade chatter as the White Sox pivot into a rebuild and the Mets add a dynamic, but injury-prone, star to their roster.
The New York Mets acquired reliever Tyler Rogers from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for three prospects, including outfielder Drew Gilbert, to strengthen their depleted bullpen amid injuries and overuse issues.
The Yankees acquired Ryan McMahon from the Rockies to address their third base needs, trading prospects Griffin Herring and Josh Grosz.
