Cards/Mets

[Mets GM (Kennedy)]

Mets Send:
SP: Drew Hutchison-11:$1M

Cards Send:
RP: Jon Rauch-11:$5M

Hutchison was a sleeper coming into the year and he's shattered even the most optimistic expectations. I snagged him up and I hate to lose him but I think I have an ok shot this year if some of my bats can come back healthy. My bullpen has been pretty good but I've punted saves for the entire year. Though I didn't make this trade assuming Rauch will help me there, I made it because it gives me another guy along with Contreras and Uejera that will either be an elite holds guy or could very well find himself in the 9th inning. Cards to accept.

[Cardinals GM (Jason)]

Its Clear at this point that my hopes dont lie in 2011, so i am pleased to get another potential mid rotation arm to add to my stable....hopefully hutchison continues his rise through the jays system....The Cards Accept
