Mets/Athletics

[New York Mets]

Mets trade:

Chris Herrmann, C, OAK - 1.54M 2019/UFA 2020



Athletics trade:

Trevor Oaks, SP, KC - 0.3/Prospect



Not a lot to see here. Herrmann is coming off the 60 Day DL and I have zero room for him on my MLB squad with three catchers already on it. Before risking to lose him for nothing via waivers I tried to trade him for a starting pitching lottery ticket. Trevor Oaks is just that.



We thank the Athletics GM for this ultra quick trade and wish Chris lots of success in this year´s title run with Oakland.



Welcome to the boys in orange and blue, Trevor, and as always let´s go Mets!

I accept. I'm sitting there on the fourth watching the A's game, and as Herrmann rips a double I'm wondering what team has got him so I go and look, and I see someone sent me an offer, and wouldn't you know, NYM is trying to trade him to me. That was a great feeling as I watched him go 4 for 4 on the afternoon. Thanks to the Mets GM.
