I would not read anything into rumors yet. If no Lowe then I would go with Garland and Perez I guess unless there is a guy you want to take a chance on besides Perez. I would still rather have his picks. You could do worse than Johan, Pelfrey, Ollie, Maine, Garland. I have not seen reports on Garland. I am guessing 4/44? Lowe would be nice.

He would be a great #4-5 starter and take some pressure off having to start Niese. Also, look at it as a back up plan to Maine being injured.

So if u add the incentives, maybe he plays hard all year long. And dont get into any stupid negotiation tactics. Wow him with money, offer options, give them 3 days, and if nothing, move on. play hardball with manny and his insane, anti-christ agent

drop a contract in his lap, 2 years 28 mil per (high price to compensate lack of years)

then a 3rd and maybe 4th year options at 25 per if he finishes in the top 3 MVP voting in year one or year 2, or if the mets win the WS

Tell them both “We want your response in 72 hours or we’re pulling the offer off the table”

He knows what the deal is. Plus I don't think these players give a rat's pitutti about replays of fans. It's all about the moola my friend. Please – the guy pitched in Boston.

Putting him behind Wright would give Wright lots of good pitches to hit as they wouldn't want to put him on base in front of Manny. Having Manny in front of others negates his ability to drive in runs. That's what made Big Papi so good in Boston with Manny behind him. It's really a good problem to have though - I'll take it either way..lol. Not insane at all my friend.

Not the same thing. And second I was completely in favor of Johan and never wanted Blanton. Not sure where you're getting that from. settle down there 09….
