Mets’ Refusal to Trade Jonah Tong Backfires as Bullpen Un…

The pitching of New York dishes did not go well since the deadline for trade at the end of last July. The most recent example can be found in the eight consecutive losses suffered this month, a sequence during which 24 of the 47 points marked by the opposition came from the sixth to the ninth round.

The arrival of Ryan Helsley was intended to stabilize the enclosure of the readers, but that did not work well for them. Helsley came with the succession of the next generation of the year 2024 NL in his name, but with the dishes, he only succeeded in 9.00 MPM with 16 points authorized in just 16 sleeves.

However, it seems that the problem is not only that Helsley could not happen in his best with his new team, but that the dishes had the potential to acquire Jhoan Duran, or at least made a greater effort for him.

A recent Mlbinsider report of the New York Post, Jon Heyman, revealed that the Minnesota twins were interested in doing business with the foods concerning Duran. Their interest was specifically linked to the 21 -year -old prospect Jonah Tong.

“The twins have sought two prospects renowned for Duran, and although the phillies seem to have only one completely prohibited prospect (right launcher Andrew Painter), the dishes were generally reluctant to give up one of their best prospects (Nolan McLean, Jonah Tong, Brandon Sproat, Jett Williams, Carson bewell),” Heyman wrote in his article. “Another thing understood: they were not going to abandon Tong, that twins loved, for a lifter.”

Duran ended up with the Philadelphia Phillies, where he had an extraordinary performance. Upon entering Saturday, he had an MPM of 1.53, with only three points authorized in 17 2/3 rounds.

Since the deadline for trade, the phillie record entering Saturday was 27-13, compared to the 15-19 of the dishes. Consequently, the Philadelphia Phillies have already won the NL East, while the New York dishes are fighting for the final joker.

Not only did the dishes not exchanged Tong, but they have already started it in four games since the end of August. Although it initially seemed incoherent, its most recent release was exceptional. He launched five -sleeves without deserved points and while withdrawing eight strikers against the Padres of San Diego.
