What minor leaguers did the Mets give up in order to acquire Robinson Cano and Edwin Diaz?

Drafted by the Mets with the sixth overall pick in the 2018 MLB Draft, Jarred Kelenic became the first Wisconsinite to be selected in the top 10 picks of the draft when the Rob Manfred called his name. He signed with the team shortly thereafter, agreeing to a $4.5 million bonus, roughly $1 million below slot value. He began his professional career with the GCL Mets and absolutely demolished the league in the short time he was there, hitting .413/.451/.609 in 12 games with 1 home run, 4 stolen bases, and drawing 4 walks to 11 strikeouts.
