It is being reported that the Mets have traded their 2007 first round draft pick (42nd overall), Eddie Kunz, to San Diego for 1B and first round pick (2008 - 23rd overall) Allan Dykstra.
The Mets have room on the roster due to Manny Acosta being DFA'd earlier today, but it is doubtful Dykstra will be on the pro roster.
Dykstra, not related to former Mets CF Lenny Dykstra, is a 6'5" 1B with some power. The 23 year old played in A+ ball last year.
Kunz has been a bit of a disappointment after the Mets drafted him with their first round pick in 2007. He is career 12-19 in four years split between A and AAA minors. Last year he was demoted from AAA to AA, and went a disappointing 7-8.
