Mets trade:
RP JJ Hoover 1.0M 5th
SP Joe Palumbo (Rangers) 0.3M 1st
m.milb.com/milb/player/643478
SP Austin Pruitt (Rays) 0.3M 1st
m.milb.com/milb/player/643493
Nats deal:
RP Sammy Solis (Nats) 0.5M 2nd
Cap Impact:
Mets: (-$1.1M)
Nats: +$1.1M
Reasoning:
Another tough one to give up on these guys so soon, especially since Palumbo was another early off season target and caught allot of helium this winter. I was excited to see if he'd get a chance this year in Texas. Pruitt is kind of funny, I almost am glad to share him just so someone else has a reason to believe in him too. I own him in a few leagues and I'm convinced he'll be one of the first Tampa spec to get a crack and be pretty surprising to allot of folks wth the success he's likely to have when he gets there... Tampa added him to the 40 and after winning Tampaa MiLB Pitcher of the year for Tampa, he's ready for his shot... But Solis made moving them both worth it... He was one of a handful of first year RP that I really tried to add this winter, and am very glad to add him to Bullpen that can definitely use anotber legit RP scoring option in the late innings... I looked at Dayton, Rivera, and Solis as 3 guys (Edwards I felt was too high profile after the playoffs, or I'd have put him top of this group) I felt, not only do they have the elite skills but the late inning opportunity this year to be very valuable Bullpen arms...I was unsuccessful in multiple attempts on all of them, so when this presented today, after a little hounding of Bryan ,I was glad to do it... Thanks Washington fur giving me the opportunity to make a deal and for a guy I'd kept after for a while this winter... And Hopefully we'll enjoy Pruitt's debut together some time this year too... Best of luck
