Trade Official: Mets trade for Lindor and Carrasco

[YoungStuna]

I like both prospects. Obviously Wolf doesn’t profile like Allan but Brodie gave away a lot of pitching prospects already. Greene could hurt down the road. I do t hate the trade but I’m just confused because they said they aren’t interested in trading Good prospects

The spirit of BVW is still amongst us. Embrace it

We definitely gave up good players. I like Wolf and I really like Greene. But they don't take away from our depth and we can easily rebuild those. And Lindor is in his prime and is a superstar

[AntiG]

Honestly I’d prefer the Mets trade for Lindor rather than sign Springer anyways

who says Springer won't happen too

The fact that we got Carrasco in this deal too is so ****ing clutch! He has an amazing contract (2/24 with a team option for 14M).

The best part is that we still have Mauricio who is far and away the best SS prospect we have!

Porter, Sandy, and Cohen absolutely killed it here.

Yup, still have plenty of funds available. All of our needs would have been addressed then.

and of course Bauer chimes in with the eyeballs lol

. Brodie sucked I know you’re his only big fan here but come on 😂. If Brodie was still here he would have traded Allan and Mauricio 😂 I embrace Cohen because he wants to win and he brought Sandy who actually knows what he is doing

This sounds like an outstanding trade assuming they extend Lindor. Wow.

I'm curious how much funds we have left after assuming 30M pretty much from this trade

There's almost no chance he's not resigned. I highly doubt the trade was made without Cohen likely talking to Lindor's agent before the deal is finalized. Still think we sign Springer and a RP.

And honestly, it's a fairly light return for someone like Lindor. Our 9th and 10th best prospect from a farm system that isn't that good... And Rosario which no one will miss. Gimenez is the only one I wanted to keep but when Lindor resigns, we won't miss him either.

This is huge.

[metsbulls1025]

Springer and another BP arm. Then just bench/depth after that.

Fantastic trade though. I was just thinking yesterday that Lindor’s name hasn’t been talked about much.

maybe we'll acquire Hand, Bauer and Kluber next, New York Indians lol

Brodie would have taken on Roberto Perez's contact also.

PS: WTF the Indians only have 3 players on their entire roster that aren't Pre-Arb. How is that even possible.

[Rocco Hardball]

Sometimes the best way to gage a trade online is to listen to how the other teams fans are reacting. And the Indians fans are devastated!!
