Well, you guys know now that they traded Harvey to the Reds:

They get Devin Mesoraco, a former 1st round draft choice who does not seem to have lived up to potential despite having one really standout year. Don't know what happened to him after that. Injuries? On second look, maybe he was just the backup catcher behind Tucker Barnhart who is better at the plate and maybe behind it as well.
Anyway, this may be a big consideration in favor of the Mets, maybe the "cash" portion of the deal:

The Athletic reported that the Reds will pay the remainder of the $13.125 million owed to Mesoraco this season, while the Mets will pay the rest of the $5.625 million owed to Harvey.
