Mets: Three trades with the Astros that led to a World Series appearance

The New York Mets and Houston Astros are tied together in MLB history. They came into the league together. The pair even met in the 1986 postseason. The Mets were the victors in that best of seven series, setting up for a championship run.

These two organizations have also made plenty of trades over the years. Whether the Astros were in the American League or National League, they’ve never been shy about making a deal with the orange and blue team in New York.

Amazingly, three of those trades helped lead to a World Series appearance by the Mets.
