Like I said before if we could move Castillo I would aim at getting Mark Young (SS) to play 2nd base for us. That would improve our defense and power when it comes to the lineup.

Who's got more game than Milton Bradley anyway? No I think he will be affordable, and he gives us an athletic consistent bat in the OF. Omar tends to like those time of guys, which leads me to wonder why he hasn't at least kicked the tires. Bradley also has a lot of fire, and would more then likely break Cole Hamels in two next time he runs his mouth, but I digress. Bradley is worth a look considering he is not garnering much attention, which translates into affordability. Eduardo brings up a good point about Milton Bradley.

Trade for Marquis. Sign Mark Prior, hes a free agent, what the heck give him 1 year with an option, let him rehab in the minors if he needs too.

ranked 1st in al in OBP(.436)
Ranked 1st in AL in OPS(.999)
Ranked 10 in AL in BB(80)

hit over .300 off both lefties and righties especially .340 off lefties which we need

the 112 strikeouts to 80 walks is real good
22 bombs, 77 rbis, 32 doubles, 78 runs in 126 games is impressive and the mets are the type of team he fits in

Plus you talk about being a headache milton has matured alot last season analyts have said this past season and he cant be worst than how manny iwll act after he gets paid all his money plus miltons a switch hitter 30 years old and will get paid 15 million less than manny i think hes the soultion and leftfield is this guys position can it get any better if were not getting a switch hitter in mark texeria or a power hitter of manny miltion is the answer for the moment
