Part 6/8:
The conversation takes an intriguing turn when discussing another potential acquisition: center fielder Luis Robert. If the Mets were to make a trade for both Crochet and Robert, it would be a monumental shift for their lineup. Robert’s impressive batting ability and defensive skills could greatly benefit the Mets. However, similar risks persist with Robert due to his injury history and fluctuating performance.
A possible trade for both Robert and Crochet could involve:
Jet Williams
Ryan Clifford
Brett Baty
An additional arm or prospect
This stacked package would surely come at a premium cost, and while the potential rewards are immense, the risks of injuries and underperformance must weigh heavily in decision-making.
