NO ONE CARES ABOUT AN OLD ZACK WHEELER TRADE THAT FELL THROUGH

Are we really that bored that we have to read a story about how Zack Wheeler was going to be traded to the Yankees for a hot second last season... and then not? WHO CARES?

That's literally the only story I'm reading this morning in EVERY PUBLICATION. I'd rather show a picture of a Yankee wearing a facemask and going to the supermarket for rice pudding. At least that's topical.

NJ.com has this:

"...for a moment, let’s look back to last year, when according to a report SNY’s Andy Martino, the Yankees and Mets had a deal in place that would have been a biggie: Starting pitcher Zack Wheeler heading to the Bronx... 

Of course, Wheeler won’t be showing up to the Bronx any time soon. The Mets ended up hanging on to the right-hander and he signed a five-year, $118-million deal with the Phillies in the offseason."

That's the story. Gee. Amazing. What does the reader get out of that?

Squat.

Happy Saturday. Hope you're stocked with toilet paper.
