What happened: Jon Heyman said the New York Mets were "working to get an edge" and said he has "proof," backing an earlier report that the team used an AI program through dugout iPads before MLB moved to crack down on the practice.

Why it matters: The claim raises competitive-integrity questions for a Mets club already navigating a sell-mode trade deadline, and it puts a specific team behind a practice MLB has since moved to shut down. Confirmation from a national reporter adds weight to a story that had circulated as an unconfirmed claim.

What to watch: Watch for MLB's response and further reporting on whether other clubs used the same dugout iPad approach.
