The Mets are a Mess!!
They are looking to get rid of serious $$$.
They will most likely not take his option next year.
would you trade
Blanton or Kendrick, Brown, and Utley for David Wright
then move Polanco to Second Base.
Would that trade get it done?
thoughts?

The mets would actually be taking on between $3 and 8.5mil in that deal

Yeah, we should trade for Wright, and then move our left field wall back about 20 feet or so.

If Utley gets traded to the mets that would be the ultimate insult for a guy that has won us a WS title, I want him to retire as a phil.

Very small chance that happens. Unless he rides out the final 2 years of his deal and cant play anymore

If he rides out this year and next year and can still play it wouldnt be completely shocking for him to go west to finish his career unless he would take a lot less money. Originally Posted by thefeckcampaign

Utley also has an NTC and Wright can void his 2013 option if traded

That is idiotic, the Mets are in a financial mess and don't want to take on salary. I think Wright would be a great fit for the Phils but he is also injured. It's a salary dump for the Mets and the Phils have to be willing to exceed the luxury cap. All I would offer at this point is any pitcher in the minor league system NOT named Biddle, May or the French guy along with someone like Jiwann James, Galvis and possibly another minor league pitcher. That said I doubt the Mets trade Wright in division.

we could probably get him if we are willing to trade Brown/Worley plus.... We would have to over pay because its the mets and its our division and its just not worth it in my opinion.
