Part 3/8:
The Mets have expressed willingness to cover portions of Marte's salary to facilitate a trade, addressing a pressing need for relief pitching. Teams such as the Kansas City Royals have emerged as potential suitors, offering an opportunity for the Mets to leverage Marte's experience for young pitching talent. If the Mets proceed with this trade, they will also need to consider the implications for their designated hitter (DH) position, which would be left vacant.
