Sixtoime's the Charm gives up...

Player NameSalary
Yonder Alonso FA Util L $4
Ike Davis LAD AAA Util L $10
Gerrit Cole NYY SP R 60IL  $4
Has $20 free, will have $12 free

Note that Cole is one of the few arms in the minors to not just be an ace, but a upper tier ace. Before the 2011 draft there were legit comparisons of stuff between him and Strasburg, and Kemp's one of a select handful we're considering giving Cole up. We also need to the 2B help from Ruben, so he's an important part of the deal. While Ike's overall numbers aren't overwhelming, he's shown marked improvement over the last few weeks. Alonso is an auto-keeper at $4 with his upside

The WAR of 18.12 gives up...

Player NameSalary
Matt Kemp FA Util R $43
Ruben Tejada CHW AAA Util R $3
Outgoing Loan $20
Has $10 free, will have $18 free

I don't have the kind of faith in Cole as you do, you're kind of overselling him. I'm a Mets fan and I see Ike Daily, he's hitting like he was last year so I will take the trade as a result.
