See that's one I thought actually made some sense for both teams. I guess dealing Stroman to the Yankees wouldn't have stung the Wilpons as much since they only just got him. Plus, it's basically turning the guys they dealt to the Blue Jays into even better prospects. Mets need guys who are ready to play for 2020, so that wouldn't have worked. The stroman deal locked them specifically into that year. Frazier or Andujar for Wheeler would've been more fair like I said but not a fit. If they turned around and dealt Stroman right after getting him, that would've meant they were looking at 2020 as a rebuild year. So I'm not sure I even believe that Stroman reported deal, as it is opposite of their trying to compete in 2020 strategy, which all of their moves have lined up with. The 2019 plan doesn't make sense, but the 2020 does (if they spend, so jury still out "lol") I thought Florial was relatively ready? Could be wrong on that though since I don't pay as much attention to prospects/minor leagues as much as probably should be. But still, I get the point. He is unproven either way and the Mets want proven players to compete next year. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> <cite>GeneralKenobi85 posted [p:925471739] in MLB and Ba...
