he was traded for Luis Ayala

inability to think outside the bun. Let Roberto Hernandez walk in 05 reaquire him in 06, let Marlon Anderson walk reaquire him, Tatis/Easley/Valentine/Perez/Sosa/Mota had bounce back years resign them ignoring regression or underlying numbers (though some moves are more defendable than others,) former Expos come aboard. Omar is a scout but if personal decisions come down to players he has seen, the player pool is severly limited. With that said, this move isn’t a big deal but still a little more of that creativity that he claims to love would be nice.

I guess Castillo is having Tommy John on his ankle ?

Blasts from the past! When the trades for Blastings and Looper are announced, Omar’s collection will be complete.

What happened to the Mets’ landing Orlando Hudson? Was Greg Veloz not enough? Can’t please some people.

What’s the Over/Under for Anderson landing on the DL? Three innings? 1 game? 7 games?

right in.

If only we could do the same with Castro, Church, Kazmire, an so on.
I could make a freaking all-star team out of the talent the Mets have traded away!

Everything that annoys me about this move:

1. Omar makes this move after the horse is well out of the barn. Where was this in May when Ramon Martinez was starting at SS or at the All-Star break when Angel Berroa was brought in?

2. It doesn’t mark the end of Angel Berroa. He’s allowed to stay as long as he wants, despite being terrible at everything and old.

3. Why trade for a player outside of your system when you have Mark Kiger playing in AA? He’s a good on-base dude drafted by the A’s in the Moneyball draft and by most accounts a good defender at 2B/3B and adequate at SS.

Neither can hit and he plays better defense and has more versitility. I thought I was done with .179 hitting Anderson Hernandez.

“adam lobby me to have Angel DFA’ed”
