MLB Trading Deadline: Fear of Trading Prospects Is a Two-Way Street Baseballology by Russ_Cohen - July 31, 20190 I kept hearing that the Mets would never trade with the Yankees. That they were cowards. Well, today they would have traded Zack Wheeler to the Yankees if they had the best offer. A trade never happened, and my guess is, the Yankees didn’t offer enough. They didn’t offer enough
Mets Bullpen Looked Good for a Short Time Baseballology by Russ_Cohen - July 19, 20190 Don’t be fooled by the Mets bullpen.

Trying to acquire Robinson Cano seems to be just
You Don’t Trade Players Like Noah Syndergaard Baseballology by Russ_Cohen - November 21, 2018November 21, 20180 This isn’t R.A. Dickey we’re talking about here.
