Carlos Gomez Traded Back to the Mets For Zack Wheeler & Wilmer Flores (EDIT - TRADE NULLIFIED!)

Another blockbuster. Wow.

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal
Per @Joelsherman1, #Mets getting Carlos Gomez for Wheeler and Flores. Pending review of medicals.

Seriously. I'm off Twitter for literally 30 seconds, and I miss the tweet.

Wow.

 

[AnthonyCorona]

Dang I was hoping the giants would go after Gomez

 

[MrMet]

Not sure how I feel about this one....

For this year, with us 1 game out with 60 to play you have to like it...Wheeler was not going to help this year, plus it clears up a spot for Herrera at 2B for next year...

Not sure how I feel about this one....

This could be the rare "it's a win for both teams"

 

[Brewer Andy]

How long is Wheeler under control? Just threw his first post surgery pitch recently, it's a bit of a gamble IMO but I have liked what I saw of him. Medical tests will be thorough!

 

[MrMet]

Weird that Flores is still playing in this game too

And crying on the field. I can only assume this is some bizzare "fans get to say thanks" as he gets pulled set up or something

 

[scotty216brs]

Great trade for the Mets IMO, that's a very good bat to add to the lineup.

 

[gt2590]

Perfect deal.

AS caliber player to Playoff team for two future starters going to rebuilders? Sounds about even to me.

Although IF I was a GM, I'd never be able to trade for a guy coming off TJ surgery and worse, still a year away from Bigs...:?

 

[Jaypers]

WOW. Just wow.

Sandy Alderson insists "there is no trade. Unfortunately, social media got ahead of the facts." Says Gomez deal "will not transpire." #Mets

 

[hive17]

WTF is going on?

Have to assume medical on Wheeler was the issue.

DID MILWAUKEE REALLY NOT KNOW HE JUST GOT TOMMY JOHN?????

 

[scotty216brs]

WOW. Just wow.

Gotta love Twitter :lol:

 

[Brewer Andy]

Speechless. I guess a guy can hope someone swooped in with an offer that includes a healthy arm!

 

[Jaypers]

The plot thickens.

Adam Rubin ‏@AdamRubinESPN
Ken Rosenthal (authenticated account) reporting that #Mets backed out of deal, not #Brewers, because of hip concern with Carlos Gomez.

 

[Brewer Andy]

Curveball!

 

[WaxPax]

Well Alderson better start working on another deal, as the fan base was fired up by word of this trade and now they're back right where they started.....
