Mets' Marcus Stroman: Dealt to New York

Stroman was traded from the Blue Jays to the Mets on Sunday, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

Stroman has put together a stellar season on the hill to this point, posting a 2.96 ERA and 1.23 WHIP with 99 punchouts over 124.2 innings with Toronto. Unless the non-contending Mets plan to flip him, he'd immediately bolster New York's starting rotation, likely slotting in behind Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard (who is also on the trade block) as the team's No. 3 starter. After all, New York would have him under team control for 2020. It remains to be seen who the Blue Jays will receive in return for Stroman.
