If you get into the playoffs thinking we'll we lose in the Division series instead then why bother being a fan? Also we have 3 early picks in the next draft so there WILL be prospects in the farm.

The storm with great waves and big slashes. I remember Omar saying something last year about not overspending on Barry Zito and saving the $$$ for Johan Santana. OK, I believe a chance to aquire Santana, the best pitcher in the game is something that has to be done at any cost. To land that caliber of a player is a once in a life time opportunity. A historic babe ruth type move which will leave the twins speaking of the curse of Johan for decades. Now realisticlly speaking, a package of minor leaugers to go along with an active starting pitcher is whats going to get it done. Omar hyping up Oliver Perez/John Main at this time a coincidence, I think not, but just trying to hype up trade bait. True when aquired, Oliver Perez had great potential but we only have him because of a 3 way trade gone bad when the Padres pulled back from the trade that had perez going for Scott Linbrink. Perez panned out but Im still not a fan of his and would love to see him included for santana if thats what it takes however unfortunately it probably will take John Main who has a more discount years to offer the Twins. So John Main, Church(in hopes of justifying a horrible trade) and a top tier prospect for Santana is what I believe is going redeem Omar. Which still leaves the Mets 1 pitcher short and probably a signing of some garbage free agent pitcher and out fielder, I’d say Jennings and whoever for the OF, but really would like to see Lowry on our roster since we would still have prospects to offer. Bam! What I am hoping…OK, True Omar is keeping things quiet right now, the calm before the storm. The storm with great waves and big slashes.

I don't see a line of 13-14 era of 4.00 at all. He won’t be expected to do anymore then he has the last three years which has been spectacular. I don’t see a line of 13-14 era of 4.00 at all.

If we are win now team, as we were told when we traded away Milledge for Church and Shcneider, then we do this trade. Pick a stand Omar.. when you pull a lopsided trade, it's because we're win now.. but we don't offfer a big package cause we want to win later?? Can't have it both ways Yes.. yes they are.. esp with 3 first round picks waiting to replenish the farm..
