Don't see why Bumgarner wouldn't be available. Zack Wheeler when the wheels inevitably fall off the Mets. (Pun intended.) Mike Minor, but I'm skeptical he's as good as he's looked recently and seems like a regression candidate.
Ramos = a difference of less than 4 months. Patino = a difference of less than 5 months. This is a major difference to you? I think a half-season slump is concerning, but the whole sky-is-falling thing doesn't work for me.
It makes sense to send him down, but I’m sad to see him go. He’s got a good approach, and I think he belongs in the big leagues. I’ve got a feeling we’ll be seeing a lot more of Arraez in the coming years.
