The Deals that the Mets Made Do Not Excite Me

 


I obtained this list from The Athletic:

Trades:

• Acquired LF Jesse Winker from Nationals for RHP Tyler Stuart
• Acquired RHP Paul Blackburn from A’s for RHP Kade Morris
• Acquired RHP Ryne Stanek from Mariners for OF Rhylan Thomas
• Acquired LHP Nicolas Carreno from Pirates for LHP Josh Walker
• Acquired RHP Tyler Zuber from Rays for RHP Paul Gervase
• Acquired RHP Huascar Brazoban from Marlins for SS Wilfredo Lara
• Acquired RHP Phil Maton from Rays for cash
• Acquired C Luis Torrens from Yankees for cash
• Acquired LHP Matt Gage from Dodgers for cash
• Acquired 3B Pablo Reyes from Red Sox for cash
• Traded Cole Sulser to Rays for cash
• Traded  C Andriel Lantigua to the Rockies for cash

The best acquisition was Luis Torrens as the backup catcher.  I am surprised the Yankees made a deal with the Mets.  I sense that David Stearns likes to make trades just for the sake of making them.  It will take time to see how the deadline acquisitions will work out, but I am not overly optimistic.
