And he strikes out a lot. Sound like a poor man's reincarnation of Rob Deer. The Mets certainly need to make a move to get younger in left field and first base. We should do what we need to do to get Xavier Nady - even if it meant trading Pelfrey. X-man has showed he could play in NY and he has continued to improve since he left the Mets. FMart is still probably 2 years away. I understand that Pascucci makes Manny Ramirez look like a Gold Glove outfielder. And he strikes out a lot. Sound like a poor man’s reincarnation of Rob Deer.

It's funny because these guys have probably never seen him play but think he is the second coming.... At least I don’t run around talking about how this Val guy is the next Mark McGwire.

Easley hasn't been a fraction of what he was early last year, and I'd probably be more comfortable with Valentin at the MI positions at this point. There's no reason to carry both of them, and if you have Pascucci, Tatis, and even Castro on the bench the right handed hitter is expendable. Tatis and Pascucci can battle to hold onto the 25th spot on the roster when a more permanent LF solution can be established.

Pascucci played first and right field and stunk at both. He is slow footed and lumbering and couldn't hit a soft let alone hardball! See my comments above.

My pet name for him while he was here was "The rally killer". I don't care what he did since he was signed by the Mets organization, this guy couldn't hit to save his life and I wish references to him would stop. Valentin no, Pascucci no, younger yes!

If he's better than whatever else we have, then he should be playing. Having a 21-year old Nick Evans does not make us a better team than having a 38-year old Jose Valentin. If Hank Aaron came back to the league and could still rake, would we not want him on our team because we want to get younger? Valentin is no Aaron, but he'll be more productive than Evans, and likely Pascucci (the 30-year old with 62 MLB ABs). Who the hell cares how old Valentin is?

He's been raking and can play decent OF defense. Chris Aguila is actually the guy who should be getting a look. He’s been raking and can play decent OF defense.
