Trade Jason Heyward because you can't afford to keep him and Justin Upton only to trade Justion Upton for four prospects a month later brehs

You know I've been trumpeting the Tulo to Mets trade since last year. Makes too much goddamn sense.

The Rockies are a joke and have no chance to compete, might as well blow it up. The Mets are one player away, imo... and he's a fukkin shortstop, their most glaring need. The Mets have an abundance of top prospects right now, most of which are redundant and won't effect the Major League roster. Tulo is under control for 6 years at a good price in this market of $118. The mets are broke, but have about his salary coming off the books next year as is in Murphy and Fatty Colon. Tulo is an injury risk so if it backfires, I can be miserable and just say "fukk it, didn't think the Mets could actually win anyway."

literally everything lines up. Every fukkin thing. it's the most perfect trade scenario in the history of trade scenarios.

... welcome to the Mets, Stephan Drew. Signed Febuary 15th, 1 year $9 million.

Do you understand what we're building and the reason for trading guys with one year left, right? We already fukked up with Heyward before 2014 by giving his money to other players, so we had to make that trade. Upton was good as gone too, I'd take prospects with experience under their belt over the Type A draft pick compensation.

This team needs to take notes from the past WS winners and build an offense built around contact hitting and baserunning. Some of the guys we've acquired (Uggla, BJ, etc.) are pull happy and strikeout prone. I'm glad we're making moves and building for the future
