Tracksuit reports Mets involved in a 3-way with Boston and Kansas City.... Only known thing is Bentiendi to KC???

Johnny Lunchbucket Feb 10 2021 07:24 PM Re: 3-way action

@NYPost_Mets: Per reports, Mets are getting OF prospect Khalil Lee from KC in a three-way trade that involves the Red Sox. Still unclear who the Mets are giving up.

A Boy Named Seo Feb 10 2021 07:30 PM Re: 3-way action

We are geniuses acquiring players and giving up nothing. ONLY DO THAT FROM NOW ON

Johnny Lunchbucket Feb 10 2021 07:31 PM Re: 3-way action

Winkowski who we got 4 Matz, to the RedSox

G-Fafif Feb 10 2021 07:39 PM Re: 3-way action

Also giving up that player who doesn't have a name, but will later.

Johnny Lunchbucket Feb 10 2021 08:01 PM Re: 3-way action

This seems pretty 👍

Edgy MD Feb 10 2021 08:02 PM Re: 3-way action

Seems like a pretty good get. Slap hitter in AA, but he's shown some power in the lower minors, knows what a walk looks like, and steals bases like he's Billy Joe and Bobbie Sue. Top-ten Royals prospect from Newark, Delaware, where they don't take shit from nobody.

https://twitter.com/mikemayer22/status/1359687951442202626 It looks like the Mets are getting a CF for AA or AAA. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=lee---000kha https://www.fangraphs.com/players/khalil-lee/sa917996/stats?position=OF Another acquisition with speed (boy does he K a lot).

Any time you can trade a pitcher whose name I can't pronounce and a player whose position and name I don't know for an outfielder whose name I've never heard before, it's obviously a win

Centerfield Feb 10 2021 09:17 PM Re: 3-way action

I guess it's ok so long as the PTBNL is nothing significant. I guess we turned Matz into a CF prospect? Doesn't seem like much of a hitter.

Edgy MD Feb 10 2021 09:30 PM Re: 3-way action

Matz gave us this guy plus two other pitchers.

LWFS Feb 10 2021 10:13 PM Re: 3-way action

All joking aside... seems a pretty slick parlay. From our side. If I saw what the Red Sox had turned Benintendi and Betts into, and I were a Sox fan? Oh, well, that's a different corner of field. [ED: And they're sending the Royals CASH to cover half of Benintendi's, like, $6M deal.]

Another lefty hitting outfielder. Later

Fman99 Feb 11 2021 06:08 AM Re: 3-way action

Good luck, guy who has not been named, and other guy whose name means very little to me.

A prospect off of anybody's top 10 list for Matz is a win. Lee can draw walks and has 50-steal speed, which is an intriguing combination. But he has to show more with the bat. If I learned anything from watching Eric Young Jr., it's that the willingness and ability to work to the count will only get you so far at this level if pitchers don't respect your ability to make them pay for staying in the strike zone.

LWFS Feb 11 2021 09:34 AM Re: 3-way action

I really, really still don't understand why we were part of this trade, but I feel glad that we were. Sandy should write a nice thank-you note.

smg58 Feb 11 2021 09:46 AM Re: 3-way action

I would guess that a couple of prospective deals that were completely unrelated at first somehow got merged. I'm curious about the process on this one. I wonder if the first choice for the PTBNL is in the process of clearing waivers as we speak.

FMan was very disappointed when he learned of the actual content of this thread.

smg58 Feb 11 2021 10:06 AM Re: 3-way action

Lee slides in to #7 on our prospects list at mlb.com.

LWFS Feb 11 2021 10:40 AM Re: 3-way action

Possible trade fuel for a Bryant deal? Like, Lee for Bryant-plus-cash, or Lee-plus-Davis-plus-arms for Bryant and Hendricks?

Centerfield Feb 11 2021 11:22 AM Re: 3-way action

Here's how crazy I am. Yesterday. Mike Wazowski and PTBNL for Bryant. Yes? Absolutely! Today. Khalil Lee for Bryant. Yes? What? Our number 7 prospect for a rental?
