No winner. Both clubs filled their expectations nicely.
Fair? Yes!

Both wins. Dickey is 38 Years old!! Mets have been working the last few years to get the older players off the book with exception to Wright who they want to make the face of the franchise. Dickey and the Mets couldnt get a contract down. So in return they get the prized prospect d'Arnaud. Buck is a heck of a catcher too. Either way the Mets are not in position to start winning again. Why sign Dickey for a 3 yr contract and end up paying a 40 year old for a team that can't even play .500 ball.
The Jays are in a win-now mode. Dickey might be old, buts hes at his peak. He'll join Josh Johnson, Ricky Romero, Mark Buerhle and Brandon Morrow. That is pretty tough 1 through 5.

Blue Jays win if they make it to the playoffs.
Mets win if D-Arnaud and Syndergaard produce in the majors.
Therefore, both teams can win and/or lose.

I think the Mets won. Dickey is old and I don't think he will do that good this year.

mets win big time, they traded a one year wonder, old pitcher and got back good prospects.
