Mets land CF Cedric Mullins from Orioles

The New York Mets acquired longtime Baltimore Orioles center fielder Cedric Mullins in exchange for three prospects on Thursday.

The Mets will send right-handed pitchers Raimon Gomez, Chandler Marsh and Anthony Nunez to Baltimore in the deal.

Mullins, 30, has spent his entire eight-year major league career with the Orioles, who are in last place in the American League East and selling at the trade deadline.

An All-Star selection and Silver Slugger winner in 2021, Mullins is career .250 batter with 101 home runs, 327 RBIs and 139 stolen bases across 784 games in Baltimore. That includes a .229 average, 15 homers, 49 RBIs and 14 steals through 91 games this season.

Gomez, 23, has gone 5-5 with a 4.63 ERA in 27 games (three starts) between Class-A and High-A ball this season. Marsh, 22, has made 33 relief appearances between Class-A and High-A and amassed a 4-1 record and 2.57 ERA.

Nunez, 24, is 2-1 with a 1.58 ERA in 32 relief appearances this season at High-A and Double-A. Nunez also has played every infield position during his time in the minor leagues but has only been a pitcher this season.
