Did We Make a Good Deal?: July 27th, 2001 Mets Trade Turk Wendell

This is a new feature here at Mini Mets Pipeline that will take a look back a deals made by the Mets and see how they look years later. The deals need at least years since they took place before they can be included so no recent deals like Ramon Castro for Lance Broadway will be discussed. We kick of the series with a trade that took place under the reign of the ever intelligent Steve Phillips.
