Morning Briefing: Could Mets Trade For Wilyer Abreu?

Good morning, Mets fans! Happy birthday to a pair of walk-off heroes, Mookie Wilson and Todd Pratt!

Brett Baty for Wilyer Abreu was the first trade ESPN’s David Schoenfield proposed in an article on potential deals that could happen during spring training. He pointed out that Baty does not have a clear starting role and the Red Sox have four starting outfielders and lack a third baseman. Both players are under team control for another four years and project similarly on FanGraph’s ZiPS.
