Reading Time: 3 minutesLast off-season, Mets fans witnessed their team being extraordinarily busy between trades and free agent signings. Brodie Van Wagenen was hired as their general manager after being the co-head of the CAA (Creative Artists Agency) sports’ division. He made a BOOM from the beginning, trading away top prospects Jarred Kelenic and Justin Dunn for Robinson Canó and Edwin Diaz in a seven-player swap. The main piece of this trade was Diaz who considered the top closer in the MLB during this time, but that changed drastically. Diaz ended the year with a 5.59 ERA and only...

Why the Yankees Should be Wary About Breaking the Bank for Gerrit Cole

Why the Yankees Should be Wary About Breaking the Bank for Gerrit Cole
