ARIEL JURADO JOINS THE METS
The New York Mets acquired pitcher Ariel Jurado from the Texas Rangers for a player to be named later (Stephen Villines - 09/20/20) and cash.
What does it give the New York Mets
In Jurado, the Mets add a right-hander with a good feel for pitching and MLB experience. He can both start or relieve, though he has struggled in the big leagues to date.
What does it give the Texas Rangers
The Rangers previously designated Jurado for assignment so they did well to land a future prospect and cash in this transaction. He failed to make the team out of camp.
Fantasy impact
Jurado is not a player who can be counted on as a fantasy option, so there is nothing to see here.
