Luis Robert Jr. on Waivers | New York Mets News

The Mets are letting Luis Robert Jr. hit the waiver wire — a last-ditch chance for a contender to scoop him up before the postseason cutoff. Acquired earlier this year from Chicago, Robert’s contract has $5M left, including a buyout, and he’s coming off a herniated disc that sidelined him. At 29, he’s got power, speed, and solid defense — plus a recent hot streak, including two homers in his return to Chicago. But his 2027 $20M club option is a major hurdle. If no team claims him in 48 hours, he stays with the Mets — and they’ll decide later whether to pick up that pricey option.
