And trading for him now would be a huge mistake. Obviously Lowe was the better avilable pitcher last year, but I was so glad that Omar wasnt the one to give Lowe 4 years.

They better hope to unload him this year. As bad as the Oliver Perez contract was and

Crawford can still be a good addition regardless. But you still can't over look the fact that they need a home run threat in that line up. But having like Reyes,Crawford, and Beltran as your first three is awesome. If they get a right handed bat to platoon with Murphy with some power then Crawford would fit even better.

They need a power LF like Bay or Holliday. As much as I like Crawford, he won’t fit the Mets. They need a power LF like Bay or Holliday.
