The Mets have agreed to a blockbuster trade with the Rangers that will send second baseman Marcus Semien to New York in exchange for outfielder Brandon Nimmo, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan.

Passan went in-depth on Kodai Senga being heavily available as well as name drops of usual suspects Luisangel Acuna, Brett Baty, and Mark Vientos. Longer-tenured Mets Jeff McNeil and Brandon Nimmo were said to be available, too.

The New York Mets did some important roster trimming on Friday, while also deciding to bring back a light-hitting outfielder.
