Astros Trade

Desmond Lindsay + Christian James + flyer for Jason Marisnick (3m)

Boston trade

Diaz (7m) + Kilome + flyer to Boston for JBJ (11m) + Matt Barnes (3m)

Mets sign Chris Stammen 2y/10m (4/6)

Mets sign Martin Maldonado 2y/5m (2/3)

Notes:

JBJ & Marisnick will play a platoon

McNeil will super utility his way into everyday ABs

King Felix will be signed bc Wilpons love big named wash-ups

the trades are meh...but seem reasonable enough to me... Detroit, not sure this is best offer they could get; Astros, whoever the flyer is will probably turn into all-star; Sox, need to move some salary around, for luxury tax, so maybe doable
