WILLIE SUPPOSEDLY THREATENED TO PERMANENTLY BENCH HIM IF HE SWUNG FOR THE FENCES & NOT FOR THE GROUND.

And also, with an ACL tear, who knows if he will be the same player. I wouldn't mind the acquisition of Wise as a defensive and pinch running asset. That said, Holliday defensive reputation is undeserved. He has a career UZR/150 of 6.2 (his UZR has declined consistently since 2007, however). Wow I didn’t realize he was going to out so long.

And why not try to get Chavez back? He's a free agent. Alex Cora is a defensive-minded bench player who can’t play defense anymore.

HUH? Endy was a liability at the bat other than when he had his momentary hot streaks so imagine Endy w/o the hot streaks = Wise.

DIDN'T WE ALREADY USE 3 SUCH GUYS IN PAGAN,SULLIVAN & REED? WHERE DOES WISE IMPROVE ON ANY OF THOSE 3? PERHAPS BUFFALO ON ONE OF OMAR'S FAMOUS MILB CONTRACTS ALONGSIDE CARTER & F-MART. DO WE NEED A PURE PINCH-RUNNER TO EAT A ROSTER SPOT? MAYBE CINCY CAN USE HIM THEY'RE ALWAYS ON LOOK OUT FOR INEXPENSIVE TALENTS. AS HOPEFUL CONTENDERS WE SHOULD AIM AS HIGH AS POSSIBLE PERHAPS I’M WRONG; BUT WHILE WISE SEEMS LIKE A NICE ATTITUDINAL GUY; IT’S OFFENSIVE SCORING HELP THIS TEAM NEEDS MOST.

I'm not so sure the Mets will non tender him because he makes very little to begin with. The thing of it is that he seemed lost in the outfield on defense, so he is a poor choice to retain if we do get Bay or Holliday. I would imagine Pagan would be the 4th outfielder in that scenario and then Wise would fit in nicely as the 5th. Where does this guy Chris Carter fit in? Isn't he an corner outfielder too?
