## Resource

Juan Soto is the lone All-Star for the struggling Mets, a stark contrast to their massive payroll and disappointing season. Hitting well and drawing walks, he’s earned his fifth All-Star nod — and his first with the Mets — while quietly pushing his team to win despite mounting injuries and underperformance. Though he’s been a bright spot, Soto knows the team’s playoff hopes are fading, and with the trade deadline looming, he’s urging fans to stay hopeful. Meanwhile, the All-Star Game also marks a heartfelt farewell for Justin Verlander, who’s retiring after a stellar career — and a short, sweet stint with the Mets.
