TB and NYM Trade

[Rays GM (Bailey)]

Rays send:
2024 Minors Draft 3rd Round Pick (Josh Hader compensation)

Mets send:
Trevor Larnach, OF (MIN) - 24: $0.85M; 25-27: ARB

Tampa Bay Logic:
I’ve been a fan of Larnach ever since the Twins selected him in the first round over half a decade ago, and I can’t quite quit him yet. His contact and strikeout numbers have left a lot of room for improvement, but I am gonna take a flyer on him hopefully righting the ship.

Great talks with Walt as always, quick and easy deal. Thank you and good luck!

[Mets GM (Walt)]

Confirmed.

I’m a Larnach fan but at this point he’s a bottom of my roster dweller and it made sense for me to cash him in for a lotto ticket.

Bailey was the 1st to the phone with a 3rd and it happened that quick.

Good quick deal with Bailey as usual, and good luck to him.
