As Met fans we should not want philly’s sloppy seconds in New York. I do think Myers can be a good arm in the pen but the injuries and drama…he’s not that good and not worth it. Money better spent on Marquis and Harden/Sheets or Piniero.

I wouldnt touch this guy if he was the last pitcher on the market. He is scum.

Maybe, but he’s not the kind of guy the Wilpons like. They prefer to keep the Mets more family friendly. I doubt they’d want to go after him, especially when there are similar pitchers available.

To totally dismiss him would be insane. Ideally would he be a great fit….no. But he Zeile mentioned he is still young, has great stuff, and can be used in the pen and as a starter. Who knows maybe he can bring a lil of that Philly magic to this team. I guess Im saying I wouldnt hate the move but I wouldnt love it either.

He’s awful, injury prone, can’t avoid controversy… as much as I like the “Phillies revenge” angle, this would be a disaster. He’ll end up somewhere like Milwaukee, or, hell, Dave Duncan will reinvent him in St. Louis.

Absolutely not on so many levels. First of all, he sucks.

Second, I can compartmentalize as much as any fan, but this is one guy I hope I never have to root for. Just a despicable person.

Your last sentence is precisely why I’d give him a look.

I think you’re right… Myers is exactly the kind of guy Omar LOVES to bring on! Though I wouldn’t mind seeing him beat up on the Phils while wearing a Mets uni.
I’d prefer Bedard, Wolf, Piniero, Marquis, Sheets, Harden, and a couple of others but…you never know.
