I think that as a compromise the Mets should throw in not only Martinez (and the four others) but another prospect in return for Joe Nathan and Johan. This is a great compromise because of the six prospects we give up, in all probability, only two of them might be able to perform successfully on a major league level. Therefore the Mets are getting two proven pitchers in this deal instead of just one. Also, I think that the Mets should try to find a way to leave Gomez out of this trade because the Mets are all about speed, and I don't think that the Mets should give up the fastest player in the game. Also, the Mets are also relieving the Twins of both Nathan and Santana's payroll for next year, which equals over $20 million.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28159948.post-17712148304678557402008-01-11T17:59:00.000-05:002008-01-11T17:59:00.000-05:00why was the author for Mets4life not included in t...why was the author for Mets4life not included in the first SHEA NATION ROUNDTABLE.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28159948.post-71602909641715601032008-01-11T14:30:00.000-05:002008-01-11T14:30:00.000-05:00When you sit and think about Santana, you can only...When you sit and think about Santana, you can only think of a once in a lifetime opportunity to get a dominant pitcher in his prime. Of course we are going to have to pay him out the wazoo, but that shouldn’t stop Omar because the Wilpons have already put their stamp of approval on this matter. Do it at all costs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28159948.post-12510906780555821832008-01-11T14:28:00.000-05:002008-01-11T14:28:00.000-05:00I would consider a trade of Gomez, Mulvey, F.

The Twins get a lot of our top prospects and we get an Ace and a future closer when Wagner leaves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28159948.post-29315079608265554672008-01-11T14:26:00.000-05:002008-01-11T14:26:00.000-05:00What else is there to say but nice job guys in com...What else is there to say but nice job guys in completing the first ever round table of all your blogs and I hope to see more in the future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28159948.post-75521299457726513372008-01-11T14:25:00.000-05:002008-01-11T14:25:00.000-05:00Well with the current lineup that the Twins are as...Well with the current lineup that the Twins are asking for, I think a fair trade is now off the table .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28159948.post-24102377881313699602008-01-11T14:24:00.000-05:002008-01-11T14:24:00.000-05:00I just can’t see the Mets giving up all that talen...I just can’t see the Mets giving up all that talent to get back one player, even thought that one player is Johan Santana. Anyway a fair trade to me would be Carlos Gomez, Philip Humber, Mike Carp and Kevin Mulvey and for question two, I don’t think that would be a good move for the Mets to trade away all that talent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
