Mets trade for dependable starter, veteran outfielder


 
The Mets traded with the Brewers to get pitcher Adrian Houser and outfielder Tyrone Taylor. In exchange, they gave the Brewers a minor league player named Coleman Crow. This trade was reported by various sports journalists.

David Stearns, who now works for the Mets, used to be in charge at the Brewers. He knows Houser and Taylor well. Both players have played in the major leagues and have done well. But in Milwaukee, they had to compete for playing time. Now, with the Mets, they'll add depth to the team.

Adrian Houser, who is 31, played five good seasons for the Brewers. He usually started games and has a decent record. His contract ends in 2024, and he's expected to earn about $5.6M next year. Compared to other players, he's a good deal for the Mets.

Tyrone Taylor, who is turning 30 soon, played well in 2021 and 2022 for the Brewers. He hit 29 home runs and was a solid outfielder. However, he missed some games due to an injury this year. The Mets hope he'll strengthen their outfield.

Coleman Crow, who is 23, was a promising player for the Angels. He joined the Mets but got injured. He might not play much in 2024 due to his surgery.

The Mets have been busy this season. They've signed several players to strengthen their team. They're also interested in signing another player, Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

The Brewers are saving money with this trade. They might have more trades in the future, but they seem okay with their current budget.

Both teams made this trade to improve their rosters for the upcoming season.
