Single-A RHP Ryder Ryan to the Mets. All the money is being paid by Cleveland. 

Two takeaways:

  • **** the Wilpons
  • I have heard positive stuff on Ryder Ryan, so he is a good get considering the money but the money is the big issue here.

Bruce has consistently been pretty meh in the 2nd half the past 4-5 years.  Any reason to expect this year to be any different?

His knees haven't been an issue this year, at least as far as I can tell.

Lol we traded him for damn near nothing to save $4M.

Ryder is a good relief arm but Jesus Christ you couldn't get a single bat?

I hate to pile on, but Ryder isn't even a good shot at being a good relief arm. 30th round pick, college arm, command and control issues, has been barely mediocre at a level where he is the average age. I'd bet on him never breaking AAA personally.

He has good stuff and is new to pitching. But yes, the success rate on any single-A reliever is not great.
