Should the Mets trade Wilmer Flores?

With Asdrubal Cabrera, Wilmer Flores and Ruben Tejada, the Mets have three shortstops on their roster.

According to veteran MLB.com reporter Phil Rogers, if they're interested, the Mets could have a trade partner for Flores in the Padres and White Sox, both of whom are still looking to acquire a shortstop this winter (Jan. 12, 2016).

He's right, in that's worth a phone call. However, I can't see either team giving up enough in a trade to make the deal worth doing for the Mets. In the end, I think the Mets prefer to have too many guys than not enough, since their goal this winter appeared to be creating versatility and depth on the roster.
