Well thats depressing.
Its a worse trade than Bagwell for Larry Andersen or Schilling for Mike Boddicker. It didn't even help the Mets this year. And they're firing the manager again, like its his fault the team sucks. Bobby Valentine was the man, now he's the Man in Japan again.Thats the way the mets deal. trade their future for failures. wish the mets had epstein and not dumbasses like duquette.
If someone buys 4 each of 20 or more things, its not a safe assumption that he's going to sell them? Maybe I should assume that he's going to go give them away at an orphanage. He specificly is not the problem, its a general problem when theres limited quantities, and people buy lots of them to ebay and kill the deal.That's one reason why you're a jack ass, because you assume things that are incorrect.

The Mets needed to trade away players for prospects and rebuild 2 years ago. Now they have mediocre players and big contracts and no prospects, no hope for the playoffs or the future. Sounds like a Duquette to me.it was epstein because the GM of the mets is Jim Duquette. Dan Duquette's bro. I know it was phillips who accepted Vaughn. I feel bad mostly for Art Howe because he was just put in a bad situation. Blame the front office for the bogus deals. the only deal that was good was the hidalgo deal but that is still ok because they gave up wheeler.
Thats my point, at the time of the Bagwell or Schilling deals, people weren't wondering what the hell they were doing, they weren't considered awful trades at the time like the Kazmir trade was. They signed Kaz Matsui and refused to trade Jose Reyes when they could have gotten a mint for him, then they trade Kazmir for nothing? Wow. Kazmir is the kind of player you never, ever, ever trade. I hope Pinella isn't too rough on him. Tampa Bay could be a serious contender in 2 years with their young talent.I never got bent out of place about the Bagwell deal. I mean hindsight is 20/20 at the time he was a third basemen and we were deep at that position. Plus we really needed a reliever for the playoffs. it wasn't like he was a top prospect at the time either and if he stayed with us there are no guarantees he would have developed as well as he did in Houston
