That linked story to Mets Minor League blog is from November 18th 2008. It’s almost a year old.
Beat me to it.
Lackey, Holiday, and Huff make great sense for the Mets. Especially cause it means NO MORE Daniel Murphy.

Castillo
Beltran
Holiday

Huff

Molina (Bengie)
Pitcher
We MUST bring in two bats if we want to compete with the Phillies next season. The lineup above would put us close to the Phillies everyday lineup (I still think the Phillies offense is better). With Johan, Lackey, Pelfrey, Perez, and Maine our pitching would be better than theirs.
I think we would immediately become playoff contenders with the lineup above. Any thoughts?
Also – the above moves would keep our cheap owners payroll around what it was the last few seasons – maybe even lower.
I agree with the pitching, if we are going to compete with the phils we need to solidify the rotation, i want lackey or halladay def. I’m not a big fan of Huff and I agree about Holliday.
I’m a big believer that offense wins divisions and pitching wins in the playoffs. Look how we did in 2006 with an American league offensive lineup… We dominated and had worse starting pitching than we do today.
If we put together an AL lineup like we did in 2006 it will almost guarantee another playoff birth. And with the addition of John Lackey with Johan we would be World Series contenders. (Only if we significantly improve our offense).
John Lackey is not the only piece that will put us past the Phillies. We need to match their offense.
At Huff’s salary.. I’d rather have Delgado back. If we unload an Oliver Perez or a Luis Castillo I can live with it.
