We are only looking at the guys you just mentioned because you wanted a catcher with bad back and bad knee and some A Ball pitcher more than saving money and making good sound contract signings….

And as a result your left overpaying for crap what you could have paid that Cy Young Pitcher.

But he is doing a great job just ask anyone…..

If his name wasn’t Liriano and he gave 14 million to a pitcher like that, everyone would want his head on a pike.

I laugh.

Phipps Sat, 22 Dec 2012 22:59:45 +0000 http://metsmerizedonline.com/?p=103484#comment-327227 I agree no significant signing in the works. Maybe another trade for a reliever or some lower level signing to slap in the bullpen, or minor league with invitation to spring training. Alderson is just serving lip service and continues to dupe the fans. Heck the Pirates signed Liriano, you mean to tell me the Mets could not make a better offer? Saunders? I doubt it, Marcum? Like others have said if healthy he costs, and we know Pavano cannot pitch in NY (Ed Whitson), so what’s left?

I called this one the other day. dude is a great fit. especially going from Zona and Baltimore to Citi Field and the rest of the NL East parks, minus Philly of course.

Lots of tires around here…Nothing to drive!

Everytime someone says they are kicking the tires somone else drives away with the car and they could get their foot crushed if they are caught offguard…..

So, considering how long it takes these guys to make moves that means that either, A- the players they’re being offered or considering aren’t worth the money, according to the ouija boards OR B- the boards are incredibly SLOW in generating answers! LOL :)

He’s the best of this bunch, but may want multi-year deal out of the Mets’ price range

Like they were “kicking the tires” on Cody Ross……”willing to offer two years to Ryan Ludwick”…..”talking to” Shaun Marcum……etc., etc., etc. When in reality it’s more like Sandy made one call apiece to the agents of these players so that it’s not “technically” a fabrication or lying to the fan base. The reality is, is that if any of these guys cost more than one year and one million dollars to sign, the Mets aren’t going to be their destination. That’s this F/O’s definition of letting the market come to them….THEIR terms, NOT the players’ terms. That might work if there is no market for a particular player, but there is ALWAYS a market for pitching, even mediocre or merely average pitching (i.e., Marcum, Liriano, Saunders). Don’t believe these rumors. Look for more mediocre moves, like the one that was reported as “working on an OF’er not previously linked to Mets”, which turned out to be, drum roll please………..Colin Cowgill.

Money that the Mets arent interested in spending.

Dont get your hopes up Mets fans on any potential free agent signing rumor regarding the Mets. If it sounds good it aint gonna happen.
