On June 26, Flores drove in the winning run against the Pittsburgh Pirates in the bottom of the 10th inning, giving the Mets a 4–3 victory.

He tied David Wright for the most walk-off RBIs in Mets' history. On July 9, in the first game of a doubleheader against the Philadelphia Phillies, Flores hit a pinch-hit walk-off home run, breaking Wright's record for the most walk-off RBI of any player in Mets franchise history. In 2018 he batted .267/.319/.417.

On April 21, the Mets placed Flores on the 10-day disabled list with an infection in his knee which required hospitalization and IV treatment. Flores broke his nose on a foul-tip in the second game of a double-header against the Houston Astros on September 2, which ended his season. For his 2017 campaign, Flores finished with a .271 batting average, 18 home runs and 52 runs batted in in 336 at-bats.

Flores made the Mets' roster for Opening Day in 2015. During the first week of the season, Flores struggled offensively and defensively as he made three errors and batted .158 in seven games. In nine games after the opening week, Flores batted .364 with three home runs. Soon thereafter, Flores was tied for third in all of baseball in errors committed with six. On May 16, Flores became the first National League position player to hit a grand slam batting ninth in a National League ballpark. The home run came off Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Matt Garza at Citi Field. The home run was his second career grand slam. On May 26, Flores at the time was tied for most home runs hit by a shortstop with Jhonny Peralta of the St. Louis Cardinals with seven. That same day, Flores hit his first career walk-off, a single, off Phillies' pitcher Elvis Araújo in the bottom of the tenth inning with two outs scoring Juan Larges for his second RBI of the game.

Flores started the 2014 season with the Las Vegas 51s in AAA, but was called up April 2 along with Kyle Farnsworth in order to replace Bobby Parnell going to the disabled list and with Daniel Murphy on paternity leave. He would be re-sent back to the 51s on April 6 to make room for Jon Niese coming off the disabled list. Flores had only started one game at second base going 0-for-4 with two strikeouts. He was recalled on May 9 with Omar Quintanilla being designated for assignment. On June 2, Flores drove in a career high 6 RBIs during which he also hit his first career grand slam against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. The grand slam came in the top of the ninth inning off pitcher Phillippe Aumont with two outs extending the lead 11–2 to which the Mets won to. On June 26, Flores was once again re-sent down to the 51s to make room for Juan Lagares coming off the disabled list. He was recalled for good on July 24 with Kirk Nieuwenhuis being sent to the 51s.

On July 3, in a home game against the Cubs, Flores became only the second Mets player to collect six hits in a game, the first being fellow Venezuelan infielder Edgardo Alfonzo, who did so in August 1999. In doing so, he raised his batting average 31 points from .224 to .255. He became the first player in Major League Baseball to accomplish the feat since C.J. Cron the day earlier and the first player in the National League to do so since Charlie Blackmon on April 4, 2014.

He obtained a promotion to the Mets' major league roster on August 6, the day of his 22nd birthday. Pitcher Bobby Parnell was placed on the disabled list with a herniated disk in his neck to make room for Flores on the roster. He made his debut that day against the Colorado Rockies at Citi Field going 0-for-4 at the plate and committing an error in the sixth inning in what would be a 3–2 Mets win. On August 7, he notched his first career major league hit, a single in the bottom of the second inning off Rockies pitcher Jhoulys Chacín. In the bottom of the eight inning, with bases loaded, he hit a base clearing double off pitcher Manny Corpas for his first three major league RBIs. The Mets would go on to win 5–0.

He finished the 2013 season appearing in 27 games with a batting average of .211 in 95 at-bats in 101 plate appearances while compiling 20 hits, 13 RBIs, 1 home run, 5 walks, 8 runs scored, and striking out 23 times.

Two days later, on July 31, Flores hit his first career walk-off home run, a solo home run, off Washington Nationals pitcher Felipe Rivero. It occurred in the bottom of the 12th inning, on a 1–1 count with no outs, winning an important game for the Mets by a score of 2–1. As Flores approached home plate finishing his circle around the bases, he memorably tugged enthusiastically at the "Mets" logo on his uniform front, signifying how happy he was to have remained with the team. Flores had also driven in the other Mets' run earlier in the game. During each at-bat, Flores received a standing ovation from the Mets' fans. The win brought the Mets within two games of first place in the NL East. After the incident, Flores became a fan-favorite of Mets fans and was given standing ovations in the subsequent weeks, both at home and at away games. It was also the only walk-off home run the Mets hit during the 2015 season. At this point on August 25, since the failed trade, he hit .343 with a .993 OPS and four home runs. The Mets went 16–6 after that day.

He also appeared in the All-Star Futures Game for the second time in his career. The Mets promoted Flores to the Binghamton Mets of the Class AA Eastern League during the 2012 season. He finished the 2012 season with Binghamton batting .311/.361/.494 in 66 games with 8 home runs, 33 RBIs, and 20 walks.
