$106 million All-Star 'has made it clear' he would not accept trade to Mets
The New York Mets could be in the market for an outfielder near the trade deadline. However, one option may not be in the cards for the team, as he has made it known he will not waive his no-trade clause for the Mets. Tyrone Taylor has been the Mets' primary center fielder this year. However, his offensive ceiling is not very high, and the Mets may want to find a better option at the trade deadline. Jeff McNeil has started getting more looks in the outfield, but he is more valuable to fill the need in the Mets' infield. Advertisement According to USA Today's Bob Nightengale, the Pirates are taking calls on everyone except Paul Skenes and Oneil Cruz. Bryan Reynolds could be a great addition to the Mets' outfield. They may have to move Brandon Nimmo to center field to play Reynolds in the corner, but he would certainly bring some upside to the team. However, the Mets will need to pump the brakes on any potential trade for Reynolds. According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's Noah Hiles, Bryan Reynolds will not approve a trade to the Mets or some other contenders. "A few national reports have stated that Bryan Reynolds is also receiving some trade interest," wrote Hiles. "Moving Reynolds, however, might not be as easy as others. Reynolds, who is under team control through the 2031 season, features a six-team no-trade clause in his contract, meaning he has made it clear he would not approve a deal to certain locations. Those six teams, per sources, are the (New York) Yankees, (New York) Mets, (Toronto) Blue Jays, (Los Angeles) Dodgers, (San Francisco) Giants and (San Diego) Padres." Follow The Sporting News On WhatsApp All of the teams that Reynolds would reportedly not waive his no-trade clause for are teams with postseason aspirations. The Pirates are set up to be sellers and could get a haul for Reynolds. Advertisement He signed an eight-year, $106 million deal with the Pirates in 2023. He is a two-time All-Star and has plenty of club control. He is having a down year at the plate, but was an All-Star as recently as last season. He has a .808 career OPS and 132 home runs. He has the potential to be a massive upgrade for the Mets. More MLB: Braves make Ronald Acuña Jr. trade decision

Riley's sacrifice fly in 10th inning caps Braves' comeback for 5-4 win over Mets
ATLANTA — Austin Riley hit a bases-loaded sacrifice fly to deep center field in the 10th inning, lifting the Atlanta Braves to a 5-4 comeback win over the New York Mets on Tuesday night. Marcell Ozuna tied the score with a three-run double in the eighth, and the Braves rebounded from a 10-1 loss at home Sunday to lowly Colorado. Atlanta has won four of five. New York, which leads the NL East, has dropped four in a row for the first time this season. Luke Williams opened the bottom of the 10th on second as the automatic runner. He scampered to third on a wild pitch from Huascar Brazobán (3-2) when catcher Francisco Alvarez made an ill-advised throw to second with Williams hung up between bases. Brazobán walked Matt Olson to load the bases, and Riley's flyball allowed Williams to score easily. Raisel Iglesias (4-5) pitched a perfect inning for the win. Tyrone Taylor homered and drove in three runs, and Juan Soto also homered as the Mets built a 4-1 lead. Soto singled in the ninth off Dylan Lee but was doubled off first base after Ronald Acuña Jr. caught Pete Alonzo's drive at the right-field wall. The first pitch was delayed 56 minutes by rain. The Braves loaded the bases with no outs in the eighth with three singles off starter David Peterson and reliever Reed Garrett. Olson struck out against Garrett, and Riley hit a pop fly to shallow right field before Ozuna's double off Garrett tied the game. According to research from the Elias Sports Bureau provided by the Braves, their 71st game of the season was the latest they've played their first game against a division opponent in 25 years. During the 2000 season, they played their first game against the Montreal Expos in their 76st game. Braves left-hander Chris Sale (4-4, 2.79 ERA) will face Mets right-hander Paul Blackburn (0-0, 6.75) on Wednesday night. Sale had his scheduled start Sunday against Colorado pushed back so he would be available against the Mets. ___ AP MLB:

Mets' Tyrone Taylor delivers another incredible web gem: ‘He's one of the best in the game'
Tyrone Taylor has been terrific for the Mets this season. With Jose Siri remaining sidelined due to a tibia injury, the veteran outfielder has gotten his opportunity to start just about every day in centerfield and he's taken full advantage of it. Advertisement Even on days he doesn't start, he keeps finding ways to make his mark. On Wednesday night, Taylor entered the game as a late-inning defensive replacement and he gunned down Luis Garcia Jr. trying to score on a single to center, helping keep David Peterson's shutout alive. A few hours later, he was back in the lineup for Thursday's series finale -- and he came through again. With a man on first and two outs in the sixth, Taylor ranged deep into the right-center gap and layed out to make a tremendous diving grab to rob Garcia of an extra-base hit and keep Washington off the board again. These are just the latest additions to what's been a season-long highlight reel for Taylor. 'At this point nothing surprises us with him,' Carlos Mendoza said. 'As soon as the ball was hit, looking at him and [Juan] Soto and how far both of them went into the gap, I thought it was going to be at least a double. Advertisement 'He kept closing the gap and then for him to make that spectacular play like that, it's not the first time we've seen it from him but that goes to show you he's elite out there -- he's a special player and a special defender, one of the best in the game.' Statically, Taylor is up there among the best in baseball -- he's currently ninth among CFs with four defensive runs saved and ranks in the 89th percentile with three Outs Above Average, according to Baseball Savant. If he's able to stay healthy and can keep this rolling, there's no reason he shouldn't at least be in the mix to take home his first career Gold Glove award come season's end. 'He works so hard at his craft and is such a good defender,' Brandon Nimmo said. 'He's really saved a lot of games and a lot of runs for us. Just look at this game and how we ended up winning by one run, that catch was extremely important, what an amazing play. "You know you're getting the best effort Tyrone has every single game -- he's doing great, I couldn't be more proud of the center fielder and the baseball player he is.'
