By posting, Mets accept. I’m using Hardy, who was selected in the minor league portion of the Rule 5 draft recently, to get off of $1.9 in salary for next season. I plan to unprotect Chang. I think it’s a fair price: Hardy has some promising characteristics, but the Mets didn’t think highly enough of him to protect him even from the minor league portion of that draft, and he ends up with a less than ideal situation in Colorado. I hope he pitches his way into a role there!

Thanks for the deal, Mike!

White Sox accept

Just adding more expiring contracts here for a guy with good stats, but in a bad place to pitch. Who knows what will happen.

Thanks Conor.
