5 best trade targets not named Shohei Ohtani to keep an eye on this summer

4) NY Mets trade target: Teoscar Hernandez

Seattle Mariners outfielder Teoscar Hernadez may be one of the more coveted bats during this year's Trade Deadline if the Mariners are no longer in the hunt for a postseason spot. The 30-year-old slugger is scheduled to be a free agent this winter and may be one of the more coveted bats in a shallow offensive market.

Hernadez who was acquired by the Mariners this offseason from the Toronto Blue Jays is currently on pace for one of his best statistical seasons and it couldn't come at a better time. Hernandez is a former All-Star and a two-time Silver Slugger Award winner and would instantly add some additional pop to the Mets lineup, which is still an area in which they could use some help.

Hernandez would also give the Mets options both in the outfield and designated hitter position with his addition. This move would easily lengthen the Mets' starting lineup and defensively Hernadez's strong arm would play well in a corner position. Hernandez would be a rental so I don't anticipate it would take a ton to acquire him, but if the Mets are looking at bats later this summer, Hernandez could be a solid option.
