Bartolo Colon how has a 4.96 ERA. It's the 4th worst in the National League. He now has a 6.01 ERA in 14 starts since May 10. Not optimal.

Will Wheeler oitch in MLB in 2016? yes. Is he likely to recapture his top form in 2016? No. harvey had an extra long TJ rehab and has had an uneven season and he is the superior pitcher. 2017 is a reasonable time frame to expect a full return to form by Wheeler.


And once again did I say he would be in top form in 2016. I said he could be a hue piece down the stretch next year. I never said TOP FORM. Are you ever going to give this shit up? Are you fucking serious? Your just going to question and make snide remarks with every post? My god, won't this end? Ill gladly return the favor and we can monopolize every Met board from now until the end of the season. Im sure all our fellow Mets posters will love it. Or we can just call a fucking truce end end this bullshit. How about that?

Oh shit.
Sphinx I don't think that's going to get it done

trying to be objective that deal is very Mets friendly imo.
Awesome.

WOOHOO CG scoops us all

OUCH. Really wanted to keep Wheeler. Oh Well

Per @Joelsherman1, #Mets getting Carlos Gomez for Wheeler and Flores. Pending review of medicals.
Ok I can deal with that  
ZGiants98 : 7/29/2015 9:01 pm : link
REALLY sad to see Wheeler go but you have to do this.
Wait.. so no Lagares going back?  
arcarsenal : 7/29/2015 9:01 pm : link
Or Gsellman?
I miss anything tonight?

If it's just Flores and Wheeler I'm pretty fucking happy.
Thank god

No more having to listen to some people overrate flores as a hitter
'Scuse me Rflairr had it by a nose  
Torrag : 7/29/2015 9:03 pm : link
Congrats to us all and Sphinx wasn't far off. We just didn't get K-Rod back...
Don't really get it  
ZGiants98 : 7/29/2015 9:03 pm : link
Lagares made a lot more sense as a piece. If we get Gomez and keep Lagares have Lagares get Tommy John tomorrow.
ok  
Deej : 7/29/2015 9:04 pm : link
i can deal with this trade. Seems fair, not crippling to the future.
Yeah with the rise  
ZGiants98 : 7/29/2015 9:05 pm : link
of Fulmer it makes the pill a lot easier to swallow. I still think Wheeler is going to be a really good pitcher and we might regret this in a few years but this move helps us "now". Had to do it.

Hey! You shut your mouth.

#teamflorescrying
Shouldn't Flores  
sphinx : 7/29/2015 9:07 pm : link
be pulled from the game?

If Flores is the play  
Rory : 7/29/2015 9:07 pm : link
You have to think he's a 3b for them going forward
I'd have rather dealt Lagares than Flores I think  
Eric on Li : 7/29/2015 9:07 pm : link
but that's certainly debateable. Feel bad for Wheeler, I hope he goes on to have a great career and bounces back strong from TJS. He was on his way to being a very good pitcher in his own right, just not in the class of the other guys around him here. His Met career kind of came full circle, got him for a deadline dump during the decline into the abyss and gave him up for one on the way out of it.
Z agreed the minute Gomez passes his physical /fingers crossed  
Torrag : 7/29/2015 9:07 pm : link
Lagares goes in for TJ. It would be stupid to wait.

Great job by Sandy. Cost controlled for 2016 and a big addition to the lineup for what is now a legit playoff push.
Next move - backup SS  
Eric on Li : 7/29/2015 9:08 pm : link
Reynolds just got back from injury, but would be great to add a reliable veteran defender.

Wheeler...he's the trade that started it all.

Farewell, my friend.

Finally. ;)
With our logjam at 2B I'm not sure why you'd prefer to deal Lags

Flores makes more sense imo.

Yes, it does make sense. But you could also keep him in play as a back up this season until it's over.

Could go either way.
Fun fact..  
arcarsenal : 7/29/2015 9:10 pm : link
I was at Carlos Gomez' first MLB game at Shea. He hit a double down the RF line in his first AB. All the buzz was "this kid is even faster than Reyes!" that day.

Well, 7 years later.. and he's back. Cool stuff.
They should probably

He goes and plays 3b and concentrates on hitting and everyone is happy.
I like getting back a guy who was originally a Met  
Vanzetti : 7/29/2015 9:11 pm : link
maybe they trade for Reyes too

:))
Mets making us all nervous leaving Flores in the game lol  
Torrag : 7/29/2015 9:12 pm : link
get him outta there...

With Wheeler recovering from TJ, medicals could be complicated.

Why is Flores still in the game?  
arcarsenal : 7/29/2015 9:14 pm : link
Gotta take him out, no?
you love getting a guy who is signed thru the next season  
Vanzetti : 7/29/2015 9:14 pm : link
that gives you plenty of time to evaluate him and see if you want to sign him longterm
Flores can play 3B or 2B imo  
Torrag : 7/29/2015 9:14 pm : link
He's just not made for SS.
We still don't  
spike : 7/29/2015 9:16 pm : link
have a future 3rd baseman to replace DW.

Farewell Flores. Bye Wheeler. We will miss you guys!
Bittersweet  
Rory : 7/29/2015 9:19 pm : link
Losing both players as they were true mets who we all built our hope for the future on

But getting a former met back in return does take the sting away.

Love the deal!
