I just want to share this picture of Stoman's dad Earl, a NY city detective.

Don't follow top 100 prospects much. Are these guys serious prospects?

Kay seems like a safe bet to be a mid-rotation starter. Probably would be by now if not for Tommy John a few years ago.

Woods-Richardson is a higher upside guy who's a few years away.

I guess it's good value for him. Surprised a serious contender didn't beat this offer though.

Stroman pitched pretty well in his 11 starts after the trade, going 4-2 with a 3.77 ERA, although his WHIP in that span was rather high (1.475.) The Mets went 8-3 overall in Stroman's 11 starts.

 

As a team, the Mets turned around what appeared to be a rather forgettable season shortly prior to the trade for Stroman ........ after starting the season at 46-55, they went 40-21 (.656) in their final 61 games of the season after that point, and tallied an 86-76 overall record.
