Earlier this offseason we looked at potential trade partners from the NL East with the San Diego Padres.
At that time we mentioned Noah Syndergaard and Yoenis Cespedes as potential targets for the Padres from the Mets.
But a lot has changed since then and things have become a lot clearer.
While I believe San Diego would still love to trade for Syndergaard, the Mets have made it clear he’s not available as they are trying to contend going into 2020.
I still think if the Mets realize they’re the team out in a highly competitive NL East division, they might try to trade Syndergaard and Marcus Stroman during the season.
