In two separate deals with the Texas Rangers, the Mets have acquired veteran catcher Robinson Chirinos and familiar face Todd Frazier. The Mets are sending a player to be named later to Texas in each deal, as well as $360,000 in cash considerations in the Chirinos deal.
Along with pitching help, the Mets were looking for a catcher at the trading deadline, with Wilson Ramos underperforming and Tomas Nido on the COVID-19 injured list.
