We couldn't have gotten him for something similar?

plus he's still isn't probably not major league ready and if Flores doesn't work out, Amed Rosario is 18 in A ball, so if he somehow finishes in AA, he wouldn't be far from a potential call-up.
Fangraphs calls Rosario the Mets "lottery ticket" and if I'm to mistaken he received the largest signing bonus of anyone in Mets history.
Both Wilpon and Castro were pitchers. Many think Fidel could have pitched in the majors.
Both head an impoverished organization that people attempt to escape from at their first opportunity.
Both have family members running the organization.
Both attempt to bolster their image through propaganda.
Both have a more powerful neighbor to the North, who relegates them to the margins through superior financial clout.
Both always promise that the future is bright.
Lol. But with talent...
