So you're saying there's a chance?Well, not exactly... Stephen Vogt Jersey ....but maybe.According to Andy Martino, the Mets do not believe that the Los Angeles Angels are serious about shipping out two-way phenom Shohei Ohtani before Tuesday's trade deadline.As Martino went on to note, Angels appear reluctant to deal Ohtani in-season, but if that changes the Mets will be interested. This could Hernan Perez Jersey setup a potential trade down the road this winter, as Ohtani is set to become a free agent after 2023.Should the Angels move Ohtani, they're likely to ask for a team's four top prospects. As reported, the Mets' Juan Soto offer to the Washington Nationals was a package of their top four minor leaguers: Francisco Alvarez, Brett Baty, Ronny Mauricio, Alex Brent Suter Jersey Ramirez, and controllable lefty starter David Peterson. However, GM Mike Rizzo would need twice that haul (impo sible) to say yes to sending Soto to an NL East competitor.As for the Angels? They would not see Ohtani very often if he went to New York. An additional reason why maybe a trade could be realistic after the season.Scroll to ContinueBut in reality, the Mets could just wait until Ohtani hits the open market after next season. In reality, owner Steve Cohen can sign him if he Zach Davies Jersey chooses, and as long as Ohtani can handle the spot light and tough market, he' Cory Spangenberg Jersey d be a perfect fit for the big city that embraces superstars.Mets remain in on names such asWillson Contreras, David Robertson and J.D. Martinez, as has reported. One source said to keep an eye out for things to pickup by Monday on the trade front, as we are just three days away from a hard stop.- - -
