Padres emerge in Mets’ possible Syndergaard, Realmuto 3-way trade

The Yankees aren’t the only team the Mets are trying to include in a three-team trade that would land them Miami catcher J.T. Realmuto — and cost them Noah Syndergaard.

According to reports, including by The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal, the Mets have talked to the Padres about a potential deal that would include Realmuto going to Queens, Syndergaard to San Diego and Padres prospects to the Marlins.

As The Post’s Mike Puma previously reported, the Padres have been among the teams to have shown interest in Syndergaard, but the two sides never approached closing a deal. Milwaukee and Colorado also have inquired about the right-hander, and the Mets continue to talk to multiple teams.

And according to reports as the winter meetings finished up in Las Vegas on Thursday, this potential Mets, San Diego and Miami swap is also not close, but again shows the Mets’ strong desire to find a way to get Realmuto, whom they have coveted since last offseason.
