if Murphy continues to hit like he has, he could have enormous value for anyone looking for bat in the summer (Which could be the Mets. They're probably not looking to offload him) He can play first and third at least averagely, and we'll see about 2nd. and we do have K pitchers. the Mets were 17th, right in the middle of the pack, last year. Obviously a lot depends on if it's Santana or like..Batista, but he Ks guys, Niese Ks guys. Dickey and Gee are below average but Dickey's decent at inducing soft contact due tothe knuckler. Pelfrey's subpar but not by a ton. Pelfrey and Niese let up a lot of hits though, and that's where the problem is, in the double plays. But he's generally been a pretty good range guy, and actually his overcommitting problems will likely be less of a problem at second. So maybe we're trading a couple of double plays for a a couple more outs in the field.
