It's seems like the Mets are always interested
in Juan Rivera, the 30 y/o right handed corner
outfielder has been a mainstay of Mets rumors for several years. He is a lifetime .282 hitter, with a Slg. pct. .470 and an OBP .331/ OPS .801. Rivera has played one major league game at first, but ...

Rob Bradford of WEEI takes a look at
the market for Jayson Bay. The Mets are said
to prefer Matt Holliday but they have also said they will only go so far to obtain the left fielder. If Holliday goes elsewhere then the best alternative is Jayson Bay. Bay's defense is worse then Holliday's and ...

If you believe the reports, then Bengie Molina
is our primary target for catcher this off-season. Molina
was targeted by Omar in 2006 but when the veteran catcher was slow to respond the Mets traded for Paul Lo Duca. Now the team is looking for power from as many positions as possible and not ...

Won't take much to out bid the Giants for Molina

I don't believe either player will end up
with the Mets because they are injury risks but
I still think they would solid additions to the club. Rich Harden and Reed Johnson don't appear in the Cubs plan for next year mainly due to the injuries they sustained during the 2009 season. Rich ...

The Padres maybe looking to move some players
that might interest the Mets. San Diego currently has
two third baseman who are both arbitration eligible, they could end up moving one of them to save some money. Either player could interest the Mets despite having a franchise player at third. ...

The Mets appear to be in the market
for a super utility player, whether it's Chone Figgins
or Mark DeRosa they seem to be looking for a player who will provide a solid bat and over 100 games in a season at several different positions. The problem with either of those players is that they ...

I completed a post on Marlon Byrd, here
. While not being the most appealing candidate, if
Bay and Holliday go else where he maybe the best of whats left. Byrd has been in talks with the Rangers since the end of the season but it does not appear that they will be able to negotiate a ...

Tommy Rancel of DRaysbay makes a pretty convincing
case for his Rays to trade Carlos Pena. The
31 y/o left handed first baseman is on the last year of a contract in which he'll earn 10.12MM for the season. Pena is a classic late bloomer who bounced between four teams before becoming a ...

I like the fact that Jason Marquis wants
to be a Met and that he would receive
added incentive to pitch in front of friends and family. The Mets need players who have a desire to play here and aren't just here for a big payday. That doesn't mean that I believe Marquis is the answer to all of ...

Early reports are indicating that the Mets have
selected Dave Jauss as their bench coach. Jauss was
selected over several others prospects who were former major league managers. It's unknown whether those perspective coaches declined the position due to the tentative nature of the managers ...

Japanese veteran pitcher Hisanori Takahashi has declared himself
a free agent and will seek a contract in
the MLB. The 34 y/o left hander in 159 starts has a lifetime record of 69 and 60 with an ERA of 3.80. In an interview with NPB Tracker he says he prefers to be a starter. The agency that ...

Sandy Alomar Jr. had been promoted to first
base coach, where he would also continue to work
as the catching instructor. Alomar will not fill that role because he has opted to take the same position with the Indians. There is speculation that Shines will now become the first base coach and the ...

According to Adam Rubin at the Daily News
the Mets are intrigued by Joel Pineiro. This is
the second time this short off-season that Pineiro has been mentioned. It all depends on who you talk to in regards to him, some believe he always had the talent and just became confident in his skills, ...

Ten days ago when the Reds declined Ramon
Hernandez option I suggested that he'd be a great
fit for the Mets vacant catching position. Unfortunately the Mets never had a chance to test those waters because Hernandez has re-signed with the Reds during the exclusive negotiation period. The ...

It's late and I don't want to make
this lengthy but I did want to pass along
this interesting tidbit. The Astros are said to be another team looking to cut costs and are also reportedly unhappy with Lance Berkman's performance for what he cost. If somehow they made him available I think he ...

It sounds like Detroit could be very active
this off-season in the trade market as they attempt
to shed salary. One of the names being floated is Curtis Granderson but I have not heard the Mets linked to Granderson at all. The 28 y/o left handed hitting center fielder would be an incredible up ...

Carl Crawford would be the perfect fit for
the Mets vacancy in left field. Crawford is the
perfect mix of defense, speed and power that the Mets are desperate to obtain. The 28 y/o left hander is a three time all star and four time AL stolen base champion. He has hit as high as .315 in a ...

I made a case for bringing in Garrett
Atkins as the platoon partner for Dan Murphy. The
biggest problem most people had was that if the Mets traded for Atkins, they would have to give the Rockies something and then pay him around 7MM through arbitration. After the year Atkins had many weren't ...
