Heartbreak at the deadline!
Mets had a tentative deal in place with the Pittsburgh Pirates that would have sent All-Star SS Felix Mantilla to the Steel City in exchange for minor leaguers C Tim McCarver and 1B Donn Clendenon but the deadline expired before the deal was completed.
Putting blame on the Bucs...they wanted the pot sweetened with an additional minor leaguer as time expired. Damn!!
