According to Mets.com, The Mets have made a trade with the Florida Marlins.

27 year old RHP Henry Owens and 26 year old RHP Matt Lindstrom are headed to Florida for 23 year old LHP Jason Vargas and 23 year old LHP Adam Bostick.

“We think Vargas and Bostick are two promising lefthanded pitchers and we're happy to have them in the organization,” said Mets General Manager Omar Minaya.

The Marlins drafted Vargas out of Long Beach State with their second-round pick in the 2004 draft. Vargas went 1-2 with a 7.33 ERA for the Marlins and 3-6 with a 7.43 ERA for the Isotopes in 2006.

Bostick went 1-2, 4.67 in five starts after his promotion to Triple-A Albuquerque, with a 30/13 K/BB in 27 innings. On the year, he went 9-9, 3.74 with a 139/80 K/BB in 142 innings between the Isotopes and Double-A Carolina.

Owen after four years in the class A leagues was promoted to the AA Binghamton Mets, where he compiled 51 and only allowed 8 hits in 25 innings pitched while closing.

He made his major league debut on July 7th 2006. He pitched a perfect ninth inning in a 7-3 Mets loss to the Florida Marlins. The first batter he faced, Alfredo Almezaga, struck out looking at a 96 mph fastball.

Lindstrom began the 2005 season at AA Binghamton, which was determined to be a make-or-break year for his career. He went 2-5 with an ERA of 5.40 with and had troubling walk and home-run rates of 6.75 BB/9 and 1.35 HR/9 in thirty-five games. He had ten starts, and was switched to bullpen duty midway through the season.
