Zack Thornton is the guest pitcher

The Brewers strongly considered promoting Jett Williams very recently but he has a wrist issue

Sproat:

5.16 ERA  3 W 4 L 87K 39 BB 1.37 WHIP

So not much better or worse than Freddy Peralta.

This might turn out to be one of those trades that sucks for both teams.

The Brewers might have been able to get someone better for Peralta.

And the Mets might have been able to get someone better for Sproat and Jett.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

It's possible the Mets could get Williams back for Peralta but not Sproat.

I'd absolutely trade Peralta back for Williams. He's still just 22.

[Cowtipper]

We could've had a rotation with Thornton and Sproat together, but David Stearns wanted Freddy Peralta instead. Sproat still has a world of potential, Peralta, not so much. He's established, Sproat is still developing. 

Thornton, Sproat, McLean, Tong, Scott. It could've been glorious ...

And, as Casey Stengel might have said, "In 10 years, he has a chance to be 32".

Well, we still have four of those five guys, so it can still be eighty percent glorious.

I hope Thornton brings it back to 100%.

Look at these guys, getting value out of Gary Freakin' Sanchez.

Zach Thornton is, of course, coming off of pitching the game of his life against Boston — a game which the Mets conspired to lose anyhow.
