    Stroman is a long islander. Emphasis on long.
    Apparently they’re getting pitching prospects.

    The Mets just traded for a SP that can contribute to 2 playoff runs in a season they aren’t in contention to make a playoff run. They paid the contenders premium for Stroman despite not being a contender.

    The Mets are quite possibly the worst run organization in all major US sports.

    So you’re saying they’re one of those orgs with whom Anthopoulos should be dealing in the hopes they overvalue Braves players.

    Well if they got Stroman for a package centered around some 45 pitching prospects I suppose I will have to take back my criticism.

    Yea, they don't have much so I am not sure they lost this trade. This might be a stupid move by Toronto.

    There has to be something else involved. Or another team.

    If not then Toronto screwed themselves. It makes no sense as there is a lot of interest in Stroman.

    This is freaking bizarre. If the Mets just got Stroman for a group of ****ty pitching prospects, then the Blue Jays are idiots. But the Mets are also idiots for trading for Stroman in the first place.

    This seems like two front offices tasting each other's feces to see which one tastes the best. Then they used the fecal matter to fingerpaint. This analogy is going nowhere... They're dumb.
