Accept. Syndegaard to minors. Adding more picks. Syndegaard is one of the best pitchers in the minors right now. Will most likely be a top 10 prospect by the start of next year. Absolutely nasty stuff. And the picks will get me more hand picked guys. Kind of a lot to give up but I'll make it work.
The Mets accept this deal. I'm pretty well stocked at pitching so i can afford to trade one of my top guys. I really need the upgrade on my position players. With Bonifacio,Encarnation and Hechavaria i get that all in 1 swoop. It costs my a lot in picks,but this was something i just couldn't pass up.
All 4 players go to my 25 man roster. Transfer Andrew Brown,Jordany Valdespin and Greg Burke from the 25 man roster to the extende 40 man roster. Send Brandon Lyon,Chris Schwinden and Mike Baxter from the extended 40 man roster to the minors. Release Shaun Marcum eating half of his 2013 salary of $4M = $2M
