Mets To Acquire Ryan Helsley
By Anthony Franco | July 30, 2025 at 6:14pm CDT

6:14pm: There’s an agreement in place sending Helsley to Queens for infield prospect Jesus Baez and two additional minor leaguers, reports Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. Nate Dohm and Frank Elissalt are also in the deal, Heyman reports.

[Futuregm2]

Baez was a pre-2025 top 100 BA prospect. He’s 20 years old and has a .740 OPS in A+. Solid plate discipline it looks like (35 BB-52 K’s in 319 PA).

Dohm was a 3rd round pick last year. 77 K’s in 62 IP between A and A+.

Elissalt was a 19th round pick last year. 0.99 WHIP and 10.4 K/9 in 56 IP between A and A+.

[Red Bird Classic]

Bout time, time for Nado, Donnie, Matz, Maton and Noot

If those five were traded, it'd make the Cards the busiest deadline deal team in history.

But I like it.

[Swuhgen]

Baez is the get in that deal.
Really exciting player.
He will enter the Cards top 10 minor leaguers.

Jesus Baez is a rising star in the New York Mets organization, currently playing for the High-A Brooklyn Cyclones. Born on February 26, 2005 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Baez is a right-handed shortstop and third baseman known for his explosive bat speed and raw power

[Red7]

Great. Another infielder. I bet one of the others is a catcher.

[Rosie's Rule]

Not at all knowledgeable on the Mets prospects but if correct is this a fair return for RH?

Or is this just another Texas/Baltimore type of return from two years ago?
