Sounds like Padres gave up #6 prospect for Drury

Edit: #6 now was #11 prior to all trades
 
I kind of think we are done for the day with trades. if so, Peterson is going to have to learn to pitch in high leverage situations late in games.
 
This package could not have brought back Wilmer instead?
Perhaps not. Let's approach this from the starting point that JD Davis has no market value. Szapucki may have a little, but not much. So we're talking about two 2021 draftees, 7th and 16th rounders respectively.
 
This is the positive spin. The negative spin would be these guys are upgrades but also one dimensional players and not difference makers on a team looking to win a World Series this year. More Kelly Johnson/Juan Uribe. Where is the Cespedes?

We’ll see how it turns out.
Kelly Johnson / Juan Uribe is all we need this year. We already have the Cespedes.

If we are done here then we didn’t do well prior to the trade deadline

Wouldn’t be going to the Mets anyway: now or two years from now.
If a FA in two years and did not extend in SD…why would you say Boras wouldn’t want him to be a Met?
boras is going to sell a soul for the best price it gets him?
 
The parts added make us a better team. Team has good chemistry already and only losing JD off the roster. I guess we will see how the moves pan out in October.
 
Until the 8th comes along and the non-Diaz RP squanders the lead.
Playoff time- deGrom/Max Bassitt/Walker Carrasco- Cookie/Walker most likely going to pitch long relief. May and Megill, Ottivino, Lugo, etc then Diaz

I would love a true setup man but..,our post season may rely 100% on deGrom
Vogelbech and Ruff >>>Dom/JD

Agree with you 100% on Vogelbach/Ruf being much better than Davis/Smith. Still need a BP arm but they definitely got better in the last week or so.

Yeah, he is a positive hope. Don't think they would leverage him in the 8th though.
However, I do agree another closer would be nice. Don't think Tylor Megill is that guy.

WTF are the Mets doing is trending on Twitter for good reason. Fan not happy giving up JD and 3 prospects for Ruf. That seems a little f'd up?
 
Eppler's own words will be used against him if they don't add pen pieces. He said they dealt Holderman because the market was robust and they'd add back. He said it not a fan so let's see what we do in last hour.

I'm a little nervous what overpay he'd give up for an arm at this point though.

JD has no market value. He is a DH who hasn't H'd in two years.

So the Mets couldn’t get David Robertson for the same deal the Phillies got him for???? Something’s up!!!

 
I’m sorry but not adding a reliever (or 2) and hoping that May and Megill come back healthy to fortify the pen is a recipe for disaster.
