The New York Mets are enduring another disappointing season, but owner Steve Cohen insists that the club won't sell at the trade deadline.

In a since deleted tweet, Cohen replied Wednesday to a fan on social media who said the front office should blow it up and sell at the trade deadline.

"All in the future, not much we can do until the trade deadline," the owner tweeted.

On Thursday, Cohen clarified his since-deleted tweet to SNY, the team's regional network, saying he did not intend to signal the Mets are looking to sell. 

"I believe in this team," Cohen said. "I believe in the back of the baseball card. It's way too early to speculate on anything. It's May 16. I expect to make the playoffs. I know the fan base is frustrated, but it's still early. We're still very capable of making the playoffs. I fully expect to make the playoffs." 

The Baltimore Orioles lead the American League East and are trending toward buying at this year's trade deadline.

One priority for the club could be bullpen help. They lost Felix Bautista to Tommy John surgery last fall and Craig Kimbrel, a free agent addition this offseason, has struggled.

It was reported over the weekend that the Orioles will monitor the status of established closers like Jordan Romano, Ryan Helsley and Ryan Pressly as the trade deadline approaches.

The Chicago Cubs will acquire reliever Tyson Miller from the Seattle Mariners, according to a report.

Seattle will receive Minor League infielder Jake Slaughter.

Miller returns to the Cubs, who used a fourth-round pick on him back in 2016. He has a 3.09 ERA and 12 strikeouts in 11 2/3 innings pitched this season.

The Oakland Athletics have received trade calls about closer Mason Miller, according to a report.

They haven't gotten deep in talks with a suitor, but the A's are at least broadly open to discussions.

Miller, 25, has a 1.10 ERA and 33 strikeouts in 16.1 innings this season.

At 12-24, the Houston Astros occupy last place in the American League West.

The club is on pace for more than 100 losses, something that could lead them to sell at the trade deadline.

However, general manager Dana Brown isn't ready to entertain the idea.

"No," he said on MLB Network. "No, I can't envision that. This ballclub is too good." 

The San Diego Padres are nearing a deal to acquire second baseman Luis Arraez from the Miami Marlins for reliever Woo-Suk Go and prospects Dillon Head, Jakob Marsee, and Nathan Martorella, a source told ESPN's Jeff Passan on Friday night.

The trade is pending medical review but is expected to be finalized soon.
