Starling Marte is having a nice year and is a guy you can get for far less and is only a rental.
I am sure a team like the Yanks may be in on him and others so the demand may be higher than I would be comfortable with.

I do like Starling for a cheap rental. Like Ketel too but seems he's getting hurt a lot. Would need to know what the deal would look like before approving. I like our top 5 prospects a lot...

This should really knock the Scherzer trade value down...would you do 2 years $70M extension assuming the prospect package was minimal?
Man, can you imagine our starters being deGrom, Scherzer, Syndergaard, Carrasco, and Walker/Stroman?
No way in hell the Nats trade Scherzer to us unless we severely overpay. Get it out of your minds.

Scouring potential trade pieces doesn't encourage me that much. I feel like they'll have to target a guy like Ketel Marte because they need that type of impact bat. Otherwise it looks like might be a sum of its pieces type deadline where the Mets acquire multiple lesser (than Ketel Marte type) bats.
I don't know what it would cost. Mauricio has to be on the table because the Mets have a SS for the next how many years. After that, they would probably want Baty or Alvarez and I don't want to give up either. That said Marte is team controlled for another 3 years. He did re-injure his hamstring yesterday so there's that possibility he may not be healthy come the deadline.
He would have to be your CFer because he doesn't have a ton of experience at 3rd base.
The Nationals are top heavy in terms of talent. Its literally Schwarber, Soto, Turner and Scherzer. Sadly thats at least 2 more guys than the Mets have hitting at the moment. If it wasn't such an underperforming division, I would say their chances of making the playoffs were none.
Atlanta has the best offense but their pitching is just awful. If they get hot, they are the most dangerous imo. This team needs to find bats. There's just no 2 ways around it.
They don't need to wait to the week of the deadline either.
