The New York Mets missed the playoffs last season, and one of their veteran players continued to struggle in the power department.

The Reds had an opening in that role because Matt Tracy has moved into the assistant pitching coach spot. Last season's assistant pitching coach, Simon Matthews, was hired by the Washington Nationals as their new pitching coach.

He beat out Cristopher Sanchez of the Philadelphia Phillies and Yoshinobu Yamamoto of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes received the 2025 National League Cy Young Award on Wednesday night. Skenes and his girlfriend, former LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne, reacted to the news while surrounded by friends and family.
