I thought Mets were expecting a big upside in Wheeler? 

Anyways that's a good trade 

Better to trade him now while he still has projected value coming off of TJS.

Gomez should be a help to them, but I think they got the wrong CarGo though. Wonder what it would have taken to get Upton or Cespedes. And wonder why not get Parra over Gomez.

Mets made the right decision. Gomez is going to be a great addition to that team.
 
Oh, another trade? Justin Upton has been taken out of the game :nerd:

Gomez isn't a rental. The price for the others was probably on the same plane and Sandy went with the guy he'd have a 1.5 of team control over 60 games.

Good point. Not sure of Parra's contract situation, so maybe they went with Gomez more for team familiarity.
yeah Parra is a rental I believe so I think that's really what it came down to. Plus we needed a righty bat. Love the addition. Boycott is over....for now.

@AmazinAvenue: Wilmer Flores gets a standing ovation, may not know he’s been traded yet, just thinks Mets fans are finally warming up to him.

:rofl:
 
I am going to miss Flores. I hope he switches to outfield. His clutch is really good. He's got so much potential to be a heck of a hitter in the future.
 
Ton of respect for Flores. Definitely affected by the trade. He's a good kid. Hope he does exceptionally well in Milwaukee.
 
Yes! I strongly dislike F-Mart. I understood how elder Mets fans feel about Alex Escobar
 
What the **** are the Mets doing? This kid is crying and they threw him back out there. Do him a solid for one last time and just pull him.
 
@Sullivan_Ranger: Rangers are getting close to getting Hamels.... Sources are say two sides are almost there to a deal.... Not tonight but Thursday

:nerd: :nerd:
 
I am glad Flores got a standing ovation. The kid deserves some love. I am surprised Collins didn't pull him out of the game.
 
Alex Escobar :lol: haven't heard that name in ages.
Former Nationals great :smokin Hit three homers in three games once for us, then was on the DL the rest of the year :lol:

Why on earth is Flores still in the game? Do they not want Gomez? What if he gets hurt?
 
I know right. I have never seen like this before.

That's why I don't like Collins. :smh:
 
@Ken_Rosenthal: Asked official involved with Gomez trade why Flores is still in game. Reply: “No deal is done. The entire world has jumped the gun.”
 
He's been in the organization since he was 16. The Mets are all he knows so it is expected. He handled the SS criticism as best as you could and is reported to be one of the better guys in the clubhouse. You don't do this to anyone.
