Summary

The Mets’ 2021 trade that sent Pete Crow-Armstrong to the Cubs for Javier Báez backfired spectacularly—Báez fizzled, while Crow-Armstrong exploded into a superstar, hitting 44 homers and leading the NL in OPS this season. With a nine-point-six bWAR, two All-Star nods, and a $115M extension, he’s cementing his legacy as a Cubs cornerstone. Meanwhile, the Mets remain playoff ghosts, missing out again despite losing a generational prospect. It’s a painful reminder: without a World Series, trading away this kind of talent feels like a franchise-defining mistake.
