JOEY GERBER GOES TO THE METS
The New York Mets acquired pitcher Joey Gerber from the Tampa Bay Rays for cash.
What does it give the New York Mets
Gerber provides the Mets with bullpen depth early in the off-season. The right-hander does not have much MLB experience, but he could compete for a low-leverage bullpen role this spring. Gerber had a disappointing 6.09 ERA in 35 minor-league appearances last season.
What does it give the Tampa Bay Rays
Gerber was unlikely to be an MLB contributor for the Rays, so they designated him for assignment before this trade. Cash is the return from the Mets.
Fantasy impact
This trade will not have a fantasy impact.
