Angels/Mets Trade II

[Brent]

The Angels and Mets agreed on another trade.  The Angels do this to move one of their bats who doesn't fit into their future plans for a MI in Profar who will slide right in as the Angels MI of the future with Correa.  We are willing to gamble on Britton keeping up his production and potentially getting us a pick.  Edwin Jackson is an affordable SP, who the Angels will try to flip.  We do give up Zimmerman, but as I said he is not in our plans and with Abreu/Cecchini we have our CIs.  Realmuto got promoted in RL, so I needed to either promote him or trade him and I chose to trade him.  Farguhar replaces the production of Britton for the Mets and is locked up cheap on a spec deal.  Thanks Corey for the easy negotiations.

INJURIES ARE KILLING THE METS

With that said, we get Zimmer to help the offense
