Goatganda the pearl of Africa
F prospects
They may not even pan out

By next year Drabek and Hutchison will be back and healthy

Still have deck McGuire and other stud minor league pitching

He'll arencibia is only 26 and only getting better

Breh
dikkey, Johnson, morrow, Buehre, a fixed Ricky Romero as your fifth starter

Happ can fill in if anyone gets injured same with Cecil

A strong bullpen

Ricky Romero was the opening day starter last year now he will be 5th

I'm happy

I know he's a knuckleballer, but I feel like this may be overworking him a little

:stopitslime:
You know what I meant, 15+ starts in T-Dot, about 1-3 starts at the Trop.

I think TD is a great return but there is somthing sad about the mets trading there only bright spot in years reeks of Tom sever to the reds

The Wilpons didn't want to pay dikkey :yeshrug:
Sure TDA has injury concerns, but he's a top 15 prospect and is MLB ready. Not too mention we got back a top 50 pitcher who's a year away.

Im gonna miss RA great guy amazing story :ohlawd: with that said it was a great move by Sandy and a deal that had to be done..

Mets arent winning anytime soon and when there ready to be good dikkey will be in his 40's so they need as many good young players as possible to rebuild..

I think its a good mvoe by both teams..For the Jays you never know with prospects..they havent been relevant in years and need to take a chance..

dikkey has been good for a few years now hes not a flash in the pan..if he helps thme make the playoffs it was more then worth it for them..

Been saying since before the Bay signing the Mets need to tear it down and build an actual solid foundation, happy to see them finally doing just that. I know they will suck this year worse than they did last season but as a fan it's reassuring to finally see some sought of plan of building for the future. I'm sad to see dikkey go but this was the right move to make.

The Blue Jays are officially my AL Team now, dikkey and Reyes going against the Yanks

:childplease:

Talking shyt to a Mets fan is like picking on a kid with down syndrome saying you're smarter than they are

this is such a win win for Mets fans. We didn't want RA gone, but we know the situation with our shyt owners. Now, we get to root for RA and Jose on a team that is in the Yankees division.

I love the Jays team on paper right now. love it.

Good deal for the Mets. :obama:

The Blue Jays look good on paper. But we know every year the same ol song and dance with them. Mediocrity sets in.
