The Mets reportedly had interest in trading for reliever Mason Miller and center fielder Byron Buxton ahead of the July 31 MLB trade deadline.

With a little more than two hours to go until the MLB trade deadline, the Mets, who had already added three quality relievers, made a move to deepen their lineup. They acquired 30-year-old center fielder Cedric Mullins from the Orioles in exchange for three right-handed pitching prospects Anthony Nunez, Raimon Gomez and Chandler Marsh.
