Deadspin | Mets place DH Jorge Polanco (wrist) on injured list Apr 5, 2026; San Francisco, California, USA; New York Mets designated hitter Jorge Polanco (11) stands in the on deck during the first inning against the San Francisco Giants at Oracle Park. Mandatory Credit: D. Ross Cameron-Imagn Images The New York Mets placed designated hitter/first baseman Jorge Polanco on the 10-day injured list on Saturday due to a right wrist contusion. The move is retroactive to Wednesday for Polanco, who already had been dealing with inflammation in his left Achilles since the start of the season. The wrist injury came to light after Polanco went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Tuesday’s 2-1 road loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. He is batting .179 with one homer and two RBIs in 14 games this season. Polanco, 32, signed a two-year, $40 million contract this offseason. The former All-Star is a career .262 hitter with 155 homers and 572 RBIs in 1,102 games with the Minnesota Twins (2014-23), Seattle Mariners (2024-25) and Mets. The Mets recalled catcher Hayden Senger from Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding transaction. Senger, 29, made his major league debut with New York last season and batted .181 with four RBIs in 33 games. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Mets #place #Jorge #Polanco #wrist #injured #list

The 2026 NFL Draft is not for a few more days.

But a seismic trade has just shaken up the first round.

The New York Giants have agreed to trade defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence to the Cincinnati Bengals in exchange for the tenth-overall selection in the 2026 NFL Draft. After Lawrence and the Giants reached an impasse in contract negotiations, the standout defender asked for a trade, and New York has decided to move him to the Bengals, getting the tenth-overall pick in return.

Now the Giants have two picks inside the top ten next week (No. 5 and No. 10) while the Bengals have another big addition to their defensive front.

Let’s hand out some grades.

New York Giants grade for Dexter Lawrence trade

When negotiations between the Giants and Lawrence stalled, it was believed that the standout defensive lineman would fetch a late first-round selection in a trade.

Instead, Joe Schoen and the Giants have received the tenth-overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, and now the Giants have a pair of picks inside the top ten to work with. The Giants will be on the clock at No. 5, and again at No. 10.

This gives Schoen and the Giants a ton of flexibility next week. They can still add a premium defender inside the top ten — as many believed the Giants were going to do ahead of the Lawrence deal — and they can also address their offensive line, or add a weapon for Jaxson Dart in the passing game, with a pick inside the top ten.

As noted by Peter Schrager, the Giants’ brass spent the past few days in Arizona meeting with Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson ahead of the private workout he held with NFL teams:

New York could use that tenth pick on Tyson now.

Either way, this move not only sees the Giants get a big return for a player that wanted out, but now they have two picks inside the top ten … and a lot of flexibility.

Cincinnati Bengals grade for Dexter Lawrence trade

Sitting at No. 10 in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals were in position to add a potential premium defender next week.

By using that trade on Lawrence, they guaranteed themselves a premium defender.

This is an aggressive move by the Bengals, but it fits with the team’s “win-now” mentality and also fits with other offseason acquisitions. Cincinnati already added Jonathan Allen, Boye Mafe, and Bryan Cook to their defense this offseason, By adding Lawrence as well, the Bengals have vastly improved that side of the ball, at least on paper.

So yes, now the Bengals cannot add a top-flight rookie defender in this spot. But they get a proven, elite defender in Lawrence and continue the improvements on that side of the ball.

The player they could have drafted at No. 10 may turn out to be elite.
