Jokers Wild

  The Mets want a power bat. Is that a joke? Who wants to go to the Mets today? They can’t get past Philly and they play second fiddle to the Yanks. Plus there are no good free agent Latinos this offseason so you know Minaya isn't interested in too many available players.


On a more serious note, the Mets need a power bat in the worst way . Joel Sherman reporting from the GM meetings in Chicago for the NY post said:

" Omar Minaya has told several of his friends in the industry that he badly wants to add a run-producing bat at either first base and/or left field."

No shit Omar. It’s not happening. The economics of the situation are that Bay, will remain in the AL east, Damon does not answer any of their glaring needs, and Holliday is going to want Teixeira money. Hey Varitek is available now Omar! HAHAHAHAHAHA     

Cheers to the Yankees!
