James D. · 09-29-2007, 01:18 AM

Who do we go out and get?

I don't want hardly anything on that including what we got there.

The Hag Has Balls · 09-29-2007, 01:46 AM

Tim Wakefield, maybe to replace Glavine.

Otherwise, what a load of crap.

We are screwed.

Gregory Gewirtz · 09-29-2007, 03:14 AM

Those players aren't tempting even as NRIs. The least terrible among them is maybe Livan Hernandez as a fifth starter. He might be fairly cheap since he's coming off a few bad years, but his year-by-year statistic lines seem to have no discernible pattern - perhaps he could rebound. His durability is a plus.

I wouldn't mind snagging Scott Linebrink to bolster the 'pen. He pitched well for the Brew Crew down the stretch.

SI Metman · 09-30-2007, 07:41 PM

no help for the pen, that's for sure.

86mets · 09-30-2007, 07:58 PM

The names on there CAN'T Possibly do worse than our current BP..

Guys like Gagne, Dotel, Ronmero, Linebrink can all be useful parts to this Pen..

As well as Iguchi for 2b..that guy got big hits off the bench everytime I watched a Phillies game..

DDPv6.0 · 09-30-2007, 08:10 PM

Would Kerry Wood be interested in being a reliever for the Mets?

Paulie Cee · 09-30-2007, 08:35 PM

Bill is willing to take a flyer on Piazza. Nothing too drastic, maybe a 5 year deal with a three-year player option.

That vests after 10 AB's.

Make the call Bill.

I agree that he'd be worth pursuing, even though his overall #s weren't very good. Since he did so well down the stretch, though, IMO the Brewers will keep him.

I'd also try to bring back Tony Clark. I just love SH PHers with power, and even though his BA wasn't good I'd like to have him on the bench.

I HATE that expression. You could fill books with the list of guys who "can't possibly do worse than xxxxxxxxxxx", but did do worse.

He's perfect. He's old, slow, and strikes out 50% of the time. A born Met. What's Richie Hebner up to these days?

LOL Just skimming that list Shawn Green looks to be the youngest player on it. Man do we need a Marlin firesale or what?

Clark would be I solid pickup. I do suspect he'll be staying as he lives in Arizona in the offseason. Clark also is valued by Arizona for his leadership on a such a young team.
