If the Mets have such limited finances, then why did they spend $2M for Gary Matthews Jr?

Well it’s 1m this year, 1m next year. What is the veteran minimum? Around 800k or something, so even if they brought a guy in off the street they would have to pay him that much.

A guy off the street could hit better.

The Cubs need to trade a pitcher badly. I think Lilly should be the one to go if he gets hot. No one will want Zambrano, and they will need Dempster for next year. Same with Gorzo. I also don’t see Silva getting a great return either. He’s a good pitcher right now but he has to prove himself for a whole season because of how bad he was in Seattle.
Regardless of their budget, they should still try to get a little younger because they have a slim chance of making the playoffs next year and need to clear a little payroll so they can make some moves next year.

The Cubs need to sell whomever they can at this point. The team is doing nothing & they’re in a such financial dire straights that any salary relief will be of great help going forward.

How is Austin Kearns an upgrade? another non-power bat. Giants should look into Berkman or even Dye at this point.

Jermaine Dye is done. It’s over for Jermaine Dye.
