Relief Pitcher: Mets asking too much for Heilman
“Aaron Heilman has been a trade target this winter by the Rockies, but they deemed the price too high,’ reports the Denver Post, according to a source close to the talks.
…as i wrote yesterday, the Mets are still very much involved in talks with the Rockies for street, in a deal that would 
include heilman…i believe a deal can be worked out, as they really like street…my guess is the Mets prefer to trade a player like Mike Carp, while the Rockies may be asking for a player like Nick Evans…
…that said, based on previous reports, such a deal may need to wait until the Rockies can sign or trade for a left-handed set up man, who isn’t named Pedro Feliciano…
Last month, Colorado asked for Feliciano, in addition to Heilman, from the Mets in a deal for Street, but the Mets declined, according to report from Joel Sherman in the New York Post.
…frankly, if i were the Mets, i would just do the heilman-feliciano deal, get street and keep Scott Schoeneweis, who can then return to being a lefty-specialist…
