ARLINGTON, Texas — Seth Lugo seems too happy to be where he is to be upset about where he was.

He was given a shot early...

ARLINGTON, Texas — The last time the Mets went for it by using a significant prospect they included pitcher J.T. Ginn to land Chris Bassitt from the A’s during spring training in 2022.
