ESPN is reporting that Javier Vazquez, a player the Mets had shown interest in, will be pitching for NL East rival Atlanta next season.
Vazquez has been traded in a five player deal, sending Boone Logan to Atlanta as well. Jo-Jo Reyes will be heading to the Chicago White Sox in return.
Obviously a few more names need to leak out, so I'll keep this updated when the other names drop.
Update, 6:56 pm: Brant Lillibridge is said to be going to Chicago.
7:40 pm: Tyler Flowers, class A catcher, also seems to be heading to Chicago. That would be all five, but will verify when it goes official.
On another note, ESPN needs a new web-editor, as their headline currently reads "Source says Reyes going to Atlanta for Reyes, others." If that was true, it'd be Harry Chiti all over again.
