The Baltimore Orioles have traded center fielder Cedric Mullins to the New York Mets. This in advance of today’s 6 PM trade deadline. In return, the O’s are receiving RHP Raimon Gomez, RHP Anthony Nunez, and RHP Chandler Marsh.
This at first glance appears to be decent return for a player or Mullins’ caliber. Especially given that he’s a rental. Granted New York is now the only team who can offer him a contract, so there’s that risk for the Orioles. But the O’s can bring him back next year if they want to and are able.
Two of those three are top 30 prospects. So there’s that. And it’s good to restock the minors a bit. That said, youth doesn’t help the Orioles at the big league level for 2026.
