After a big Mets collapse in 2007 the Mets needed to get something going in the offseason. This was a very big move by the Mets treading a good part of there minor league system for a two time Cy young Award winner Johan Santana

The Mets sent Carlos Gomez who was the biggest prospect sent in this trade, he is a faster man then Jose Reyes. He is also a great center fielder, and a good leadoff hitter in Minnesota.
