Quote: Do Something Big

During his weekly appearance on WFAN’s Mike and the Mad Dog program, SI.com’s Jon Heyman had the following to say….

“The main thing for the Mets right now is that they need to do something big. They can’t come back with basically the same team they had. They gotta save their chips and try to make a run at Santana, long shot that it may be.”

…heyman cited this line of thinking when relaying Omar Minaya‘s reluctance to include Lastings Milledge as part of a package for Brian Schneider and Ryan Church of the nationals…with today’s acquisition of Johnny Estrada, the need for a catcher appears to have been filled, but the important thing to take from the trade is that minaya did not have to part with a valuable prospect to pull it off…

To listen to Heyman’s entire segment, during which he also discusses the Luis Castillo signing, the NL MVP award and assorted off-season news, go to WFAN.com.
