Re: 2008 New York Mets Discussion

Good grief....Phillie fan infestations in this thread! Well, can't say anything. They've earned it.

Here's my wish list for this off-season.

- Sign KROD....If they play this out rigt, maybe the price/length of the contract will drop enough making a signing very possible.

- Sign RP Juan Cruz, 3 yrs $16MM
- Sign RP Damaso Marte, 3yrs $21MM
- Sign C Pudge Rodriguez 2 yrs $13MM
- Sign either D Lowe or Ollie Perez

- Trade A Heilmann, S Schoenweiss, and lower B pitching prospect to ChiSox for Javier Vazquez
- Trade R Church, R Castro, Fernando Martinez, and Eddie Kunz to Detroit for Magglio Ordonez and Rodney Scott.
- Trade Luis Castillo to Dodgers for CF A Jones, then flip him over to either Yankees (for Betemit), Red Sox (J Julio), or keep him for the year and find a cheap 2B alternative.

- Waive good bye to Marlon Anderson

@ Picci

I am laughing my *** off here....dang, you sdound like a couplr of the callers on The Fan who call up with trade proposals that are out of this world...lmao

Juan Cruz...not bad

Damaso Matre...not sure if he's neccessary

Pudge...hell no

right now, I'd sign Lowe...and POSSIBLY use him as a closer

Andruw Jones...hell no in any circumstance....
and worse scenario...can't keep him....

Beltran will NOT play left or right...and neither would Jones

Re: 2008 New York Mets Discussion

my wishlist is this: Get rid of Heilman, schoenweiss, and castillo. keep the bench in tact, replace the 3 replaced individuals with average players, and try to get a stud somewhere in our pitching staff either starter, releif or closer. thats it. I swear to god, if heilman is on the team next year I am done. I know I say this every year, but seriously, if they dont get rid of him, i am out.

looks like Schneider may only have been a "one year" catcher.. they supposedly are talking to Boston on a trade there..

Hopefully the bullpen will be better this year
