The Mets should have got more than this guy, for what they gave up. This guy is essentially a a late first early second round draft pick who probably won't play in the MLB for 2 years if ever.

a) you are under estimating what the value in a 19 year old A ball all star middle infielder isOriginally posted by EmpireMaker
b) you are judging a trade before the PTBNL is even named which even the Pirate Gm said is "significant"
c) you are forgetting the cash
d) what did the mets give up? a few weeks of some old farts that helped them to last placeComment -

vic black is the ptbnl.
he could b a decent reliever thats about it.
im glad it wasnt someone better myself.
chi, im a bit surprised your being so negative about their chances. the playoffs are a crapshoot, this isnt the nba, anyone can win once your in, try and avoid the wild card game though is important.Comment -

nah, hes fairly realistic for the most part, i usually agree with him, but the point is that the pirates are for sure better then they were on tuesday before the trade, thats all anyone can ask, what they gave up in the future is minimal at best.Originally posted by Big BearComment -
byrd is the man
great trade for the pirates
mets in a tough position, need to get lucky with a will myers type guy one of these daysComment -

this is a monster move for the Pirates. Buck fill in for the ailing Russell Martin...believe it or not Buck is in top 5 catchers in MLB in RBIs.....and Marlyn Byrd will fill in for Starling Marte who just hit the DL.
Byrd is having a monster year hitting .285 21 HR and 71 RBI. that is a HUGE pick up.
I guess now that the Mets don;t have Harvey to sell tickets they want D'Arnaud to be the star of the show.
