The Mets made a ton of moves.
The Yankees did essentially nothing.
The Mets’ 2023 playoff hopes are long gone.
The Yankees’ 2023 playoff hopes are not pretty.
It’s a sad state of baseball in New York.
Joel Sherman and Jon Heyman talk about it on a new episode of “The Show” podcast following the trade deadline.
‘The Show’ Podcast with Joel Sherman & Jon Heyman:
- METS DEADLINE: They did well with the prospects they got back. They will try and be competitive next season, but hard to see a championship happening. Did Billy Eppler lie to get Max Scherzer to waive his no-trade clause? How does the Mets’ future look?
- YANKEES DEADLINE: The Yankees did not do much of anything. They are paying a price for all the wrongs over the past year. They are currently a problematic team. Brian Cashman is in a slump. Could this be the start of a downward turn for the franchise?
- REST OF MLB: Angels, Marlins, Astros and Rangers were the big deadline winners. Rangers look better than the Astros. The AL West will be a very intriguing division now to watch.
