beautox Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I'm really interested in seeing what the Angels do now. Wells and his remaining 42mil is not going anywhere so i would think he would act as the 4th OFer and DH. I think they move the following to fill out their rotation: one of Trumbo/Bourjos, Morales and Conger as well as some prospects since they're "all in". I imagine both the mets and sox profile well as partners. We could afford to move Floyd and Thornton and the Mets can move Dickey to get some ml ready talent.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Andy Martino @MartinoNYDN Really believe Toronto is strong frontrunner, but can report Texas has indicated will trade Olt and RHP Cody Buckel for Dickey. Oh my god, what are the Mets waiting for? They should have jumped all over it if it was just Olt, not Olt PLUS Buckel, a 2nd RD pick who dominated High-A at 19 years old, and did really well at AA when he turned 20 over the summer.

Also rumored is D'Arnaud may be involved with Gose, in which case I'd probably take that package. But either way, the Olt for Dickey rumor came out about a week ago.

With Wright and Davis (Olt might be an upgrade) on the corners I'd rather have JP and Gose or D'Arnaud and Gose if I was the Mets GM.

I'd clearly just then flip Olt for De Aza and Flowers, and the Sox resign AJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapzk Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 (edited) @Joelsherman1 But right now it's Dickey/Thole/prospect (told not elite) for d/Arnaud/Syndegaard/Buck/prospect (told not elite) #Mets #Bluejays Looks like the Jays are about to add Dickey and the deal should come by Monday, that would make them favorites to win the AL and have one heck of a rotation probably the best in baseball.
