Joe Blow Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Mets acquire Juan Uribe, Kelly Johnson for pair of minor league pitchersThey gave up nobody.Supposed to be more to come. Not the greatest move,but these guys are close to being their two best hitting starters:) If not there best http://espn.go.com/new-york/mlb/story/_/id/13314467/new-york-mets-trade-acquire-juan-uribe-kelly-johnson-atlanta-braves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downsouth Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Braves going soft. Was a time they would have waived players and ate salary than trade to Mets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Square Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Its definitely not a move that will spike them offensively although a couple of solid players and Kelly Johnson is quietly a pretty decent hitter and getting them pretty much free i think it was a nice move esp if they follow it up with something else.

Hangover Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Kelly Johnson immediately became their best hitter. That is sad. Need to get a legit middle of order power bat to make an impact offensively. KJ and Uribe will just help the mets average 1.2 rpg instead of 1....if that.

Hangover Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Mets needs to get Weiters and Davis Sounds good to me. Not sure if willing to part with Weiters. Good hitting catcher hard to come by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yanks Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Mets needs to get Weiters and DavisWeiters is a free agent at the end of the year right? Davis may be an upgrade but you aren't getting one of those stud pitchers for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangover Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Think Mets also sold on D'Arnaud and he is coming back soon. Doesnt make sense to trade for catcher rental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yanks Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Think Mets also sold on D'Arnaud and he is coming back soon. Doesnt make sense to trade for catcher rental.Ya didn't even think about him. As long as he stays healthy he will be fine. No way the trade for a catcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Square Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Ya didn't even think about him. As long as he stays healthy he will be fine. No way the trade for a catcher Davis would make sense but for some reason seems like Baltimore would want to get into those arms in return for him and its just not worth it.

MyNameIsMyName Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Ya didn't even think about him. As long as he stays healthy he will be fine. No way the trade for a catcher D'Arnaud is better than Weiters, No way in hell would they even consider that dumb ass trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharp Square Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Mets interested in Davis and Britton. Seems Mets are shopping around Wheeler perhaps this is one of the deals they are trying to put together. Not sure it would be worth it to the Mets seeing that Davis is only a rental but the Mets seems to want "impact" bat in some form or fashion.

Mofome Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Here you go According to FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal, the Mets made a push for Troy Tulowitzki but came away with the impression that the Rockies will not move him.The Mets have the kind of young pitchers the Rockies should be trying to stockpile, but there has been no indication from the Colorado front office that Tulo is on the block. And it seems the Mets have now moved on to other offensive targets like Ben Zobrist, Jay Bruce, and Justin Upton. Tulowitzki, 30, is under contract with the Rockies through at least 2020.Related: Mets Source: FOX SportsJul 25 - 4:28 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis Id love to get something back for Davis but hes no bat you can count on in a playoff series, he swings at too many pitches that aren't close, he just guesses.

joeybagadonuts Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Giants were trying to go after uribe to bring him back to the bay. They have interest in Zobrist as well but for some reason , the Giants and As rarely ever can complete a trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
