MIL / NYM Trade

[Milwaukee Brewers]

The Brewers and Mets would like to announce a trade!

The Brewers receive:

• Jordan Humphreys, SP, NYM - $1.2 prospect

The Mets receive:

• Riley Mahan, 2B, MIA - $0.2 prospect
• Cody Poteet, SP, MIA - $0.2 prospect
• Cameron Bishop, SP, BAL - $0.2 prospect

The Brewers made this trade because they needed to cut down their minor league roster.  This allows the team to consolidate a few good prospects into one they feel has higher upside.

Thanks to the Mets for the deal.

[New York Mets]

The New York Mets accept this deal.

After trading away nearly every quality youngster from the Minors for MLB pieces my strategic focus has shifted to rebuilding my MILB roster with some higher ceiling players. I still have high hopes for Humphreys but his development was halted by TJS last year. Getting three promising lottery tickets in return was a nice chance to rebuild some MILB depth.

I would like to thank the Brewers for the constructive trade talks and wish Jordan a quick recovery and a fantastic career.

Welcome to Binghamton Riley, Cody and Cameron and as always let´s go Mets...
