Mets trade:
-Brandon Nimmo, OF, NYM
Mariners trade:
-Ryan Mountcastle, 3B, BAL
-Tirso Ornelas, OF, SD
-2019 AMAT Draft Pick 2.20
I wasn't looking to trade Nimmo, but Robin has been after him for awhile and I'm pleased with the return. Similar to the Cubs trade, Seattle gets another OBP monster. I think Mountcastle should get time in the majors this year and while he doesn't get as many walks as Nimmo, but I think he could develop into a better hitter in terms of the number of hits he makes and his power potential. Ornelas is far away, but I like his tools and that he was solid in A-ball while only 18. I've liked my 2nd round picks in the past AMAT drafts and think I'll be able to get another good prospect there.
