Deadline Deals

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

No one player was going to suddenly put this team over the top. Injuries have been the story of this season. All teams get hit with injuries and must work to overcome them, the Mets have unfortunately been with a rash of long term injuries to a multitiude of their key players.

I'm more disappointed at the lost opportunity to see how good this team could have been this season had they not been decimated with injuries, than I am over the absence of any desperate trades in hopes of miraculously putting this team into contention.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

I'm with Seawolf. Would have liked to see Omar sell off a few players.

[Valadius]

I would have liked to see another lefty for the bullpen, at least.

[Guest Edgy DC]

We have Misch, and we're getting Wagner, and I'm uncertain anybody else will have made a difference worth giving somebody up for, except that maybe Manuel may trust an import more than he does Misch.

[Valadius]

Honestly, I don't think Misch knows how to get Jerry to trust him enough to get him in a meaningful game.

[Guest Edgy DC]

And if our issue is that it takes a trade for Manuel to give somebody a chance who may or may not be better than a pitcher he's got rotting in the back of the bullpen, its' not a trade we should be clamoring for.

Back to the Pirates for a sec; 3 HRs for McCutcheon today (and power is supposed to be his weakest suit). Would have been nice to see him in an OF [u:3uw4r55j]WITH[/u:3uw4r55j] McLouth and a few of the others. btw, they brought up Milledge as one of the guys tying to fill all these newly created spots.
