CHC sends: Anthony Kay, P, NYM Jeisson Rosario, OF, SD
NYM sends: Blake Treinen, RP, OAK $4.1MM 2020 (NYM to cover $1 MM through 2019) 4th rd MiLFA pick in 2019 (coming MiLFA draft)
This gives me a source of saves that I'm slightly more confident in than Blake Parker or Shane Greene, and at a relatively affordable contract. I've seen a lot of interesting write ups regarding Treinen's dominant sinker and slider combination, and he may just be one step away from becoming an upper-tier closer. Of course with the volatility of relief pitchers this one may come back to bite me as both prospects have solid upside, but every bit of 40-man roster improvement will help at this point.

Mets accept
I think Rosario has the potential to be a top 100 caliber prospect as he gets older. Especially if he adds some power to his game. Anthony Kay was a first round draft pick in 2016, but hasn't pitched as a pro yet because of Tommy John surgery. Needless to say, I'm hoping he regains the form that made him a first rounder once he returns this season.
As for Treinen, he greatly improved after he was traded to Oakland, but the beginning of his season in Washington went pretty poorly. Overall he's blown 10 out of his 27 save opportunities in his career, so I'm not convinced he sticks as a closer given his propensity to blow saves. That being said, if he pitches the way he did post trade last year, he'll easily outperform his salary.

+5 Mets. Only because I'm excited to see how Kay develops coming back from TJ.

2 quality lottery tickets for a reliever and a mid round future pick is a really nice return.
