The Mets and D-Backs have come to agreement on the following deal...
Mets get:
Jason Heyward, RF, Cubs. 2018/21.5M 2019/20M 2020/21M 2021/21M 2022/22M 2023/22M
D-Backs get:
Jay Bruce, RF, Mets. 2018/21M 2019/21M 2020/21M 2021/21M
Basically we are swapping high priced right fielders. Right now Heyward is out performing Bruce, but Bruce is due for one of his hot streaks. The D-Backs front office has always had a soft spot for Jay and I think it would be safe to say the same about the Mets and Jason. Hopefully the change of scenery will jump start both players.
Thanks to the Mets GM for making this a quick and easy deal to pull off.

The New York Mets accept this deal.
I just couldn’t stand seeing Jay Bruce play for my team any longer. Heyward is younger and doesn’t strike out all the time. He also plays his best season since his days in STL.
I would like to thank the Dbacks front office for the good deal and wish Jay all the best with his organization.
Welcome back to NY, Jason, and let’s go Mets!
