As for trading Prospects, it's likely only those in AA or AAA or MLB-ready would be moved as everyone else is too far away.   And very few others would be of interest.   In no special order:

1) Outfield: Anthony Gose, Moises Sierra;   2) Catcher: Travis d'Arnaud, A.J. Jimenez;   3) Infield: Ryan Goins;   4) LHP: Sean Nolin;   5) RHP: Noah Syndergaard, Aaron Sanchez, Marcus Stroman, Sam Dyson, Chad Jenkins, Deck McGuire, Daniel Barnes;   6) MLB-ready: Drew Hutchison, Kyle Drabek, Colby Rasmus, Adam Lind, J.P. Arencibia, John Buck.

That's it.   Some on the list, don't have much value, while others on the list, weaken the team too much.   Who A.A. moves is a mystery.

Just for fun let's look at the ETA's for the players who were listed:

• Travis d'Arnaud (#1)   - 2013
• Noah Syndergaard (#2 for 3, #3 for 2) - 2015
• Aaron Sanchez (#2 for 2, #3 for 3) - 2015
• Roberto Osuna (#4 for 4, #6 for 1) - 2016
• DJ Davis ranking between 5th and 7th - 2017
• Daniel Norris ranking between 6th and 8th - 2016
• Marcus Stroman ranking between 5th (BA + JS) and 9th (FG) - 2013
• Sean Nolin: from #4 for BP, missed by BA - 2014
• AJ Jimenez from 8th to 10, missed by BP - 2015
• Matt Smoral: 9th on 3 (BP, BA, FG) skipped by FG + BB - 2017
• Alberto Tirado on BP only (#10) - 2017
• John Stilson on BA only (#7) - 2013
• Santiago Nessy only on FG (#10) - 2016
• Christian Lopes only on BB (#10 - 2016

For the next two years the major league team will be helped by one catcher (TDA) and three pitchers (Nolin, Stroman and Stilson).  However with each of these three pitchers there is still a debate as to whether they will be starters or relievers.

In 2015 you have Jimenez, Syndergaard and Sanchez.

And of course around half of these guys will flame out.

R.A. Dickey....  Could be a Jay soon?

The fact there are so many reports of Dickey going to the Jays can lead me to one conclusion. It is highly unlikely Dickey is coming to the Jays. That's how it's been under Anthopoulos so far, I have a hard time seeing it change now. My guess is the Mets are using the Jays as a negotiating tactic through the media.Teams realize at this point that Anthopoulos will neither confirm or deny any rumours.

They agreed that his ceiling remains sky high, but at this stage they put his chances of ever becoming even an average major league hitter at below 50%.

He's always been very young for his level, so he needs a proper chance to adjust to a level.  But after he was recalled from Vegas last year, with a Mottola modifcation to his swing, WOW.  All I see is an amazingly gifted player with a short sweet stroke.  He hit a 380' bomb to right in Fenway that just exploded off his bat.  At 21 years-old!

I like that Jon Daniels has gone on the record saying that Dickey is not headed to Texas.

Funny, my first thought on reading that was "Oh boy, Dickey back in Texas. Wonder what they'll give ud?"

If the Mets turned down Ott for Dickey, I am not going to like what the Jays offered.  It is not like we are getting a proven winner....(year over year).  But, knuckleballers do seem to bloom late.

In the same breath, after all the trades that have happened in the past year, the top ten prospects for the Jays is still very impressive.  They are still ahead of many teams.  It tells alot about the depth that AA was trying to assemble in the organization.  We may not have any A+ prospects, but we have(had) alot of A and B prospects. 

Go Jays!

Why? He's an inferior prospect to d'Arnaud and he plays the position where the Mets least need a prospect.
