He didn't get a shot, he was the last resort. And I'm not saying the other guys didn't deserve their shot. they played well. but still... it took a lot before Minaya didn't try to replace them. Alou. he gets hurt, then it's Pagan. Pagan gets hurt, then it's this hodgepodge of people who just didn't desrve to be there: Marlon Anderson. Trot Nixon. Andy Phillips Brady Clark Endy Chavez (i love the guy, but he's a bench guy. not a starter) Finally, he let's a minor leaguer try the field. Aguila. He doesn't work out after a week (even though the albatross Marlon got a bigger shot) Then finally Fernando Tatis takes over the job, even though Murphy was doing decent at filling it. <strong>Do you guys remember the crap trades he made in the middle of the season for lf?!?!</strong> phillips? nixon? clark? seriously?

But another way to go would be playing murph at 2B, evans/easley/tatis at 1B, and trading Fmart, Heilman, and Kunz for Matt Holliday. Retain Ollie, sign Lowe and Krod. Trade delgado for Scott Downs or Sonnanstine or Edwin Jackson. I have loved the O-Dog option.

I don't think anybody would have figured out that Murphy would have to show he is adeuqate at 2B before he played 2B for a major league team. What a concept. …in my opinion, for murphy to be even considered to be the Mets second baseman next season, it’s important he shows the ablility to play the position during his time in the afl…
