The Houston Astros announced Thursday that they traded outfielder Jake Marisnick to the New York Mets for prospects Blake Taylor and Kenedy Corona.
Marisnick, 28, had spent parts of the past six seasons as a member of the Astros after beginning his career with the Miami Marlins. He spent most of his tenure in Houston as a fourth outfielder who excelled defensively.
Per Spotrac, Marisnick is estimated to make $3 million in 2020 before being eligible for free agency in 2021.
Marisnick was not a regular starter last season with George Springer, Michael Brantley and Josh Reddick seeing much of the playing time in the outfield, but he did appear in 120 games.
