I don't quite get the reasoning here from a Mets perspective, especially after acquiring another guy who hits righties well in Vogelbach.

Billy Eppler is such a f***ing bitch lmfao. Did jack shit at the deadline with the Angels for 5 years and then gets to New York and fills 3 holes with multiple days to go. f*** that guy

Naquin actually owns a glove in case he is needed to play the field

The "resources" the Mets gave up in these trades are pretty minimal, nothing every team doesn't have.

With Moreno as a meddling owner, at times it was tough to know where he ended and Eppler (and Dipoto before him) began.
