His value now is tied into who he was 2 years ago not who he has been for the past 2 seasons. THis current Dontrelle in his current form is essentially no better than Kris Benson (just healthier). He is a reclamation project and that is likely not worth too much. They are better off keeping him actually except they are cheap and he is about to get another raise Who knows.

I wouldn't mind WIllis, but not for too much. I don’t care to get Cabrera. I wouldn’t mind WIllis, but not for too much.

I'd take a flyer on him. There's your power hitter... What would it take to land Dontrelle? I’d take a flyer on him.

I seriously doubt though that the Fish would want to do a trade with us again considering how two of the last 3 trades with us has worked out for them. (Vargas and Bostick for Linstrom and Owens being heavily in thier favor) DOntrelle would love pitching against his old team 4 times per yr and he would never let them forget about it by destroying them. that said...If a deal could be hatched for a one good prospect (Pefrey and send them back Vargas) I'd do it DOntrell makes alot more sense for this team.

I'm less concerned about what the Mets would have to give up, they could always work out a 3-way deal, with an AL team, that could use Delgado and get some prospects back to include in the package. I'd give him $150 over 7 years and stick him at first base. I just have a feeling (and maybe I read it somewhere) that no matter what team he's traded to, Cabrera will test the FA market after next season.

He's such a good hitter. I just don't think we have the prospects to get him. I think he'd make a pretty good 1B or a Manny-like leftfielder. I want him on my team! I really really want Cabrera.
