After a short negotiation the Mets & Diamondbacks have agreed to the following deal...
Mets receive:
Juan Legares, CF, Mets. 2018/6.5M 2019/9M 2020/TO 9M
Diamondbacks receive:
Ronnie Dawson, LF/CF/RF, Astros. 2018/.2 - prospect Christian Santana, 3B, Dodgers. 2018/.2 - prospect
In their continuing attempt at a rebuild Arizona continues to build their MiLB roster with promising prospects. Legares was seen as a little to expensive to hang onto in a back up role as we try to rework our team in the new GM's image.
Again, the talks with the Mets GM were good. An excellent trade relationship has developed.

The Mets agree to this deal. After today's trade of Span to the Angels I was looking for a new CF backup. Lagares is nothing special but he should get playing time and he seems to be working on his swing this offseason in order to become a more powerful force. I hope It works. Low floor, low ceiling, low risk...enough for a bench player - albeit a very well paid one.
Again I would like to thank the Diamondback for the good trade talks and wish Ronnie and Cristian all the best on their way to the Majors.
Welcome to New York, Juan and let's go Mets!
