[Little Slide Rooter]

I suppose it would make the right side of our outfield amazing defensively with him in center and Kosuke in right, as well as thoroughly piss off White Sox fans, but his name is Aaron, and we dont need another one of those any time soon.

Felix Pie for Brian Roberts

Felix Pie and Matt Murton for Zach Greinke and Mark Teahen

[Lefty]

My original point was to guess what Hendry might do. He would probably think Rowand is a step up from Bradley and the Giants might welcome getting out of Rowand's contract. I was hoping others would come up with ideas that reflect Hendry's tendencies (e.g., signing Billy Wagner for 2/20).

The difficulty this year is that the new owner hasn't really said much about what they intend to do. He *might* want to make a big splash in what should be a buyers market. He may want to decrease payroll as many of the recent high dollar signees haven't really panned out.

 

I don't see Hendry paying a FA closer. The focus will probably be on upgrading 2nd base which probably means Figgins or Hudson (did he sign a 1 year deal with the Dodgers?) Now that they've moved Soriano out of the leadoff spot they will be looking for someone with some speed.

I'm expecting a big run at Figgins (assuming they have money to spend).

I have a feeling that Jose Reyes is going to be our Brian Roberts/Jake Peavy distraction of the offseason this year.

This.

 

And assuming the budget gets increased, I could see a run at John Lackey coming. Or perhaps some salary dumps to make that happen.

Reyes at SS and Theriot at 2nd or Theriot to somewhere else?

I definitely think Reyes is at the head of the line of Mets stars who may get traded.

My honest guess is that as much as Lou and Hendry seem to love Theriot, he'd almost have to be part of the deal. Maybe something like Theriot/Vitters/Wells/Carpenter/Fox for Reyes? The Mets need cheap, ready to play in the majors talent and sending them Theriot, Wells, and Fox could fill 3 holes for them immediately.
