The Mets pull off a savvy trade, sending injured pitcher Clay Holmes and hot-hitting outfielder Tyrone Taylor to the Cubs for top-100 prospect Jefferson Rojas — a dynamic, multi-position infielder with elite tools, projected to mash 20 homers and swipe 20 bases. Signed for just over $1M in 2021, Rojas has skyrocketed through the minors, showing power growth, defensive versatility, and a knack for extra-base hits. Ranked 63rd overall by MLB Pipeline, he’s primed for Double-A but could leapfrog to Triple-A soon. With third base as his likely long-term home, Rojas offers the Mets a cornerstone piece with serious upside — making this deadline deal a smart, future-focused move for Queens.
