Anthony DiComo from MLB.com caught up with David Wright during a recent charity event, during which the young third baseman helped to dedicate a New York Mets room at the Ronald McDonald
House of Long Island.
Wright had a lot to say about the Mets chances this season, including…
“Hopefully, all of us are better than last year…Just because we haven’t made any changes, doesn’t mean that we aren’t going to come in and be better players individually. I think we need to improve as a team. The answer isn’t free agency; the answer isn’t making these big trades. It’s looking inside…But obviously a Johan guy wouldn’t hurt.”
…i know i’m in the minority of Mets fans on this one, but this is how i’ve felt all along…
…sure, i would love for the Mets to get santana, or make another significant acquisition, but if they don’t, it’s not like this team is finished…there’s reason to believe the Mets will get more from pedro this year, and that reyes won’t wear down, and that delgado might give them just a little bit more, and so on…
…added to by Matthew Cerrone…
…i agree, chris…although, i want santana, because i still believe it is important for this team, in this city, heading in to a new stadium, in a competitive division, to get an ace…and since that ace cannot be acquired on the open market, it has to be by trade…for me, it’s more opportunistic, in terms of taking advantage of a market shift, than it is tactical, with regards to filling out a rotation…
