Mets trade: - Yoenis Cespedes (eating $15m in salary this year, $10m in 2018, and $5m in 2019)
Padres trade: - Anderson Espinoza - Adrian Morejon - 3.22 in this year's AMAT draft
I don't think my team is good enough to compete for a championship right now. The first step to start the rebuild was to see if I could get anything for Cespedes. In this deal with the Padres I get a pitcher who has the potential to be an elite starter in Espinoza and a pitcher who projects to be a good 2 or 3 starter in Morejon while also getting a 3rd round pick where I can grab another quality prospect.
Good dealing with the Padres!

This is an all in win now move for me as I'm getting a 31 year old and losing two top pitching prospects, but that's a price I'm willing to pay for a guy like Cespedes whose cap hit will be especially favorable to me this year and next year, and beyond that will still be in line with the salary structure of my team as a whole. Mets get a draft pick as well to help build for the future.

+5 Padres due to the uncertainty of pitchers as prospects, and save for health the relative certainty that Cespedes will remain a stud
