With Bowden gone, I think Omar has no peer.

The Brewers are saying they won't trade Fielder. Also, I would put Murphy in a Crawford deal, but I wouldnt put Davis, Mejia, or Reese Havens in. There’s one problem with that.

Signing Matsui will set this franchise back another 2 years. Minaya better not even think about it! Also can we please stop selling Daniel Murphy. September stats mean nothing. The guy is just not that good. He is also TERRIBLE defensively no matter where you put him. I don't know about the rest of you Mets fans but I want to WIN a WORLD SERIES. I am tired of being sold mediocre players as keys to winning. I will not be fooled any more. If I see Murphy starting next year I will know where this team is heading.......to another year of losing and missing the playoffs and the line by ownership to "Wait till 2011....we will play meaningful baseball in September."

There is no place for Godzilla on this team. We should fill the LF hole with Holliday or Bay. A huge effort should be made to get Adrian Gonzalez for 1B and trade Murphy to the AL. Good article Ed.

Forget losers like Branyan and the always injured Nick Johnson. Forget anyone 35 or older. Get DeRosa to hold onto first until and if Ike is ready or someone better pops up. Bring Lackey in here. Fact is, we are not deep enough to trade for someone who is really good. For power maybe Cruz. I do not want fat, old, slow Benjie Molina. Barajas is fine. I do want a real second baseman. Our infield defense is atrocious. But Hudson is no spring chicken and the Dodgers have given up on him. Get a good glove for second. People who have been talking abouit guys like Uggla are insane. Has anyone watched David Wright play third or Murphy play first. The infield must be tightened up. Keep Francoeur unless you can package him with another good player for some stud who is eating up salary on a smaller market team. But even if we could do alll that, we would still be a third place team. Because our good is not really as good as we think. Forget old, injured players like Matsui or a Delgado redux.
