Mets close to acquiring Danys Baez

[Rex Grossman 8]

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The Mets are close to acquiring Danys Baez from the Rays for a package headed by Jae Seo or Aaron Heilman, according to the New York Post.Heilman alone is too much to give up for Baez, but if the Mets could get him in exchange for Jae Seo and fellow right-hander Brian Bannister, that wouldn't be bad. Lastings Milledge won't be a part of this. If the Rays trade Baez, Chad Orvella would take over as the favorite for saves, though Shinji Mori could also be a factor.</div>http://www.rotoworld.com/includes/topblurbs.asp?sport=MLB

Oh yes, because an 2.86 ERA and 41 saves must suck. I think he would be one hell of a setup man for Billy Wagner. Why the hate for the Mets? I honestly dont understand.

 

[NFLCChosen One]

HAHA, I agree with Derek.

Guys, i was kidding about the Who Cares part, but I was not with the he sucks part. I hate the Mets, cuz I like the Yankees, duh The year before that he had an ERA of 3.57. I just dont think he is that great. oh well.

He's a great young closer....well now set-up. He had 41 saves for one of the worst teams in the leauge. That says a lot. I think this really solidifies the pitching of the Mets. Great aquisition.

Mets are all-star happy right now. They'll go out and get anyone.

But if the right offer comes around for someone who can help our club, then why not.

 

[Brooksie5]

If they hear anyone might get traded they'll put an offer in.

I dont see how making a call or two of interest is a bad thing, it just means that the GM likes to explore all options, which then gets blown way out of porportion by the New York media.
