There is significant momentum toward a deal that would send Robinson Cano and Edwin Daz from the Seattle Mariners to the New York Mets, league sources tell Yahoo Sports. While they characterize a deal as not done yet, there is an increasing expectation a trade will get finished.
A few things could stand in the way of a Can/Daz-to-the-Mets deal. The Mariners have not yet approached Can asking him to waive his no-trade clause, sources tell Yahoo Sports. Still, if there is a deal in place, Can is expected to agree to it, according to sources.
Also, medicals have scuttled many a deal. So those are far from inconsequential. All in all, though, the Mariners are extremely motivated to move Can, and they have made significant progress on a deal that would land Robinson Can and All-Star closer Edwin Daz with the Mets.

Seattle wins 89 and does a firesale.
I think we've fully ushered in the tank era... but unfortunately with a dozen teams doing it, it's likely just going to lead to bad baseball all around.
