What would you give to get Matt Harvey?

[SwingKing01]

Me and a buddy were talking at work. He is a Mets fan, I of course a Reds fan. We got to talking and arguing about what we would have to give up to get Matt Harvey. After a long debate, I told him I would ask the guys from here. So what would you give the Mets to get Matt Harvey here?

Nothing. We don't need pitching. He's good but with Cingrani, Stephenson on the horizon, and a group of other talented arms in the offing, Harvey wouldn't really fill a hole.

"What we would have to give" and "what we would give" are two different questions.

OK what would we HAVE to give to get Harvey. Just a hypothetical to settle an arguement.

The Mets would not trade Harvey, even hypothetically

Votto and Bailey might get it done. :laugh:

The Mets look at Harvey as the next Tom Seaver. The Reds could offer their entire starting rotation and I doubt the Mets would trade him.

Would probably take something like Cingrani, Hamilton (or Winker if they prefer more power), and Stephenson.

Would probably take something like Cingrani, Hamilton (or Winker if they prefer more power), and Stephenson.

And a lifetime supply of Klondike bars.

Too bad Harvey couldn't hit

I think it would take more than that. I think the Mets would also demand Chapman, Bruce, or both.

I wouldn't make the trade, but I imagine it would cost something like: Bruce, Cingrani, Stephenson, Winker, Hamilton and Hoover.
