At first, I was not going to vote for this trade, however after further consideration, I believe it is close enough that it does not qualify for a veto under Kenny's stipulations. Purke has considerable risk with injuries and if Plouffe could hit with alittle bit higher average he might justify the at bats the Mets are looking for.

I am not necessarily a fan of the trade, but I don't believe it meets the criteria, therefore, I approve.

Personally, my opinion is that you inherit the team the way it is, NTCs and all. Bids will be won based on them. I could see a scenario where they could offer a buyout by paying the difference the Ntc is equivalent to against their cap.
