According to several sources, he already has reached out to Paul DePodesta, whom he hired in San Diego, to help strengthen the Mets� statistical department and J.P. Ricciardi

DePodesta's blog is awesome. And now he might be writing it from the Mets' front office? Extra smiley face.

If Omar can scout me more Nelson Cruzes (Cruces?), and Alderson and other lieutenants can make better decisions about selling them off before their due dates, he's welcome to be part of my team's team.

I guess I can stop hoping for Bobby V.

Now get to work Sandy.

2pm Friday for the introduction, SNY will have it live.

Omar would probably make a fine director of Latin American scouting.

DePodesta is an interesting choice.
