Mets trade:
Chase Headley- 3B, 2016+, 7.0
Brandon McCarthy- SP, 2016, 2.5
Francelis Montas- SP, 1st, 0.3 (Dodgers) www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=14309&position=P
Alex Bregman- SS, 1st, 0.3 (Astros) www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa659419&position=SS
Derek Fisher- OF, 1st, 0.3 (Astros) www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa597981&position=OF
Joe Musgrove- SP, 1st, 0.3 (Astros) www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa597766&position=P
Francisco Mejia- C, 1st, 0.3 (Indians) www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa739565&position=C
Tommy Pham- OF, 2nd, 0.5
11.5
Indians trade:
Jose Altuve- 2B, 6th, 6.4
Robinson Chirinos- C, 3rd, 1.0
Tanner Roark- SP, 4th, 1.0
Mark Lowe- RP, 2016, 0.3
8.7
Mets cap: -2.8
Indians cap: +2.8
I just acquired Altuve, but this return trumps what I paid so I've accomplished my goal. Montas and Musgrove will most likely be pitching next year in the majors, Pham will be playing in some capacity if his body doesn't fall apart, and Bregman/Fisher are both knocking on the door. This just comes down to building up the talent in my farm. I've got about 21 top-100 specs at this point, and there is some redundancy at certain positions (don't think I need 3 top-50 SS specs). This opens up the door for spec swaps, which are so much fun. Obviously I'm taking on cap in Headley and McCarthy, but expiring contracts are okay.
Lowe, Roark, and Chirinos will be valuable complimentary pieces for a team about to compete. Good luck in 2016, Mets! Second big deal this offseason...hopefully we can complete another one later.
