They need Matt Halliday because they need to have another true power
hitter. There is something wrong with Wright, and Beltran doesn't
really scare people alone. Matt Halliday is a bonafied 30+ HR power
hitter.

Then they need to get Roy Holladay. To me Santana is the only starter
that the Mets can count on next season. Pelfrey is too inconsistent
and I think after x-amount of years we can write him up as just that,
a talented pitcher that's inconsistent (hello Dave Mlicki). John
Maine is too injure prone and even when healthy he's inconsistent as
well. O. Perez is a sad joke of an excuse for a player. They need
Roy Holladay.

Without the Holladays the Mets are a 3rd place team at best.

No they don't. Isn't there a teenaged facebook sight for you to post to?

Is Halladay that much better than Lackey? Lackey will only cost money
while Halladay will cost money and prospects.

"The Wilpon's don't have any money."

Of course not, they did lose $700 million to Bernie Madoff. Or was it
$200 million? Or was it nothing?

I can't keep up with all the media bullshit that everyone likes to quote
as facts.

Assuming the joker's right, Wilpon is running short on money. So
what's his way to make more money? By watching the Mets go down the
drain, fan base shrinks, can't sell the tickets like the early 90s,

You need to invest money to make money, I'm sure as businessmen the
Wilpons should understand this basic fact. You don't make money by
putting out a shitty product.

I agree 100% Thats why I think the Mets will sign some free agents. They
have no choice, they have to win some fans back. I just hope they spend
wisely.

Are you this insecured?

There are medical personnels that deal with disorders that you have.
And yes I believe they have free clinics for you if money is a
problem.

You need help Ruben, you have severe self-esteem issues. Daddy
touched you as a child? Mommy was your first cherry?

Not insecure over you...man child. Are you insecure blasting all over the
internet irritating bullshit about things you know nothing about?

Beat your chest more, man-child.

Or maybe you should try to use what little brain you have for thinking and
then go back and relize that you can shovel as much money as you want on
free agents and still have a team that totally sucks...

Oh - that's right...we just did that this year. Maybe the Wilpon's should
dump all there prospects and further empty the organization of talent to
satisfy your stupid teen-aged imapatients.
