Quote: Ted Berg on Being a Buyer or a Seller
“I know what you’re thinking: You’re saying the Mets should be “buyers,” not “sellers,” at the deadline, since they’re still on the fringes of contention. Nonsense. Those are labels. That’s silly. Teams should read the market and take advantage of inefficiencies when they present themselves… You’re a general manager. Improve your team.”
Ted makes a good point, earlier in his post, suggesting the Mets promote Triple-A LHP Mike O’Conner and look to trade Pedro Feliciano, considering what the Blue Jays are asking in return for reliever Scott Downs.
