Read: Minaya must Focus on Entire Roster
In the New York Post, Joel Sherman explains how Omar Minaya must look to improve the depth of his team’s roster, writing:
“Minaya too often has neglected the whole roster. So that when, for example, a pricey commodity such as Billy Wagner was hurt, the Mets were forced to bottom feed at a dire time…I have heard that issue was a significant theme at the initial offseason meetings among the top brass.”
Sherman continues on to wonder if the Mets should consider trading a player like Jose Reyes, for the good of the future and the overall roster, asking, “Would the Angels take Reyes for Joe Saunders (a high-level 
starter), Jose Arredondo (a long-term closer candidate) and Erick Aybar (a shortstop replacement)?”
…i don’t know about that, but, i agree that more attention must be paid to the entire 25–man roster…as SNY’s Ted Berg likes to say, it’s okay if you have one guy, like Endy Chavez, who is all-defensive, no-hit, but you can’t have four or five of them, like the Mets did this season at times…
