Mets outfielder Juan Soto has a break this week as the All-Star game gets underway in Atlanta. The 26-year-old slugger, who is halfway through his first season with the Mets, was not selected for this year’s roster. His agent, Scott Boras, is not happy with the snub.

But perhaps its best decision was to bring back franchise slugger Pete Alonso on a relatively cheap deal. After prolonged negotiations, the Mets landed him on a two-year, $54 million contract with a player option after this season and he has rewarded that decision with another All-Star season.

Right-hander Mets’ Kodai Senga was activated off the injured list Friday afternoon for the series opener against the Kansas City Royals.

New York Mets slugger Juan Soto is not happy to be missing out on the $100,000 bonus that would have come with being named to the 2025 MLB All-Star roster.

The New York Mets stole Juan Soto from the New York Yankees in the offseason. They could steal a top trade target from the Bronx Bombers this season, too.

Juan Soto singled in the tiebreaking run in the 10th inning, and the New York Mets hit three home runs in a 7-6 comeback victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night.
