New York Mets Acquire Christian Walker from Houston Astros for Mark Vientos and Zach Thornton
The New York Mets could bolster their first base position by trading for Houston Astros Christian Walker. In this mock deal, the Mets would send utility player Mark Vientos and left-handed pitching prospect Zach Thornton to the Astros. Walker, who hit 27 homers and drove in 88 runs last season, would provide the Mets with much-needed power and defense at first base, filling the void left by Pete Alonsos departure. The trade would also give the Mets instant offense and defense, while the Astros would shed salary and acquire younger talent in Vientos and Thornton. Fantasy players should note Walker as a steady power pick, while Vientos and Thornton have long-term potential in dynasty formats.
