The Mets lost their rights to the Minor League Baseball affiliate Buffalo Bisons as their AAA team. For 2013–15, the Mets have agreed to a deal to claim the Las Vegas 51s as their newest minor league affiliate, for Triple A.
On November 7, 2012, the Mets and outfielder Jason Bay agreed to part ways, with the team buying out the $21 million remaining on his contract and releasing him.
On December 17, the Mets and the Toronto Blue Jays agreed to a deal sending 2012 Cy Young Award winner R. A. Dickey, Josh Thole and Mike Nickeas to Toronto in exchange for prospects Travis d'Arnaud, Noah Syndergaard, and Wuilmer Becerra and veteran catcher John Buck.
On May 30, the Mets swept the Yankees for the second time in the history of the modern Subway Series. The Yankees had swept six games from the Mets in 2003.[1][2]
On August 30, 2013, the Mets traded catcher John Buck and outfielder Marlon Byrd through the waiver process, to the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Mets received reliever Vic Black and Dilson Herrera.
