The Los Angeles Angels trade
Mike Yastrzemski - $6,100,000 (protected)
to the New York Mets for
Nick Gordon - $850,000 (protected)
Trimming more salary on my way to having a workable offseason. I actually like this swap on its face as well though. Yaz is a platoon bat; Gordon provides much needed speed and showed good power last year.
Mets to confirm.

Confirmed.
After the Reynolds deal, I could afford to take a chance on Yaz.
I agree he’ll be leaning towards platooning, but that will allow me to play him without fearing he’ll regress anymore than he has recently.
Quick deal with Todd and good luck to him on his aggressive off-season.
