The Blue Jays, the Reds and the Thor Conundrum

The Mets are reported to be shopping Noah Syndergaard, with his power arm and two years of team control. Their ask is a bit unusual, though – rather than the usual ask of one of two top-tier prospects, the Mets are reported to be looking to “fill multiple holes with real impact”, that is, with multiple players who are MLB-ready.

The Reds are reported to be serious Thor suitors, but they have a problem. They have an excellent farm system – ranked 7th in the majors by mlb.com – but many of their top prospects (Trammell, Greene, India, Santillan) are still at least two years away.
