And how, exactly, would getting an iffy defensive 2B who gets on base a good amount, steals 30 bases a year or so, and has little-to-no power be any sort of significant improvement on Luis Castillo? 'Cause he's slightly younger, and would cost more?

As several others below have noted, Wells is owed a lot-- A LOT-- of money, and is not just unworthy of said money but is team-killingly so. During his last two full seasons-- 2008 was 2/3 of one-- he OPS+ed 85 and 88... in essence, a below-average major league starter-- not outfielder, but PLAYER-- with the bat. With the glove, he's arguably worse. Taking on his contract would mean that we are lashed to this mess like Ahab to the Pequod, with similar results.
| If they would take Ollie Perez instead of Maine, that's even better. If they want Murphy so they can unload Overbay's contract, so much the better. Add/subtract other piece parts as needed without losing any key minor leaguers. |
And if Toronto wants Reyes for Halladay, you're damn well sure they're taking Ollie. At least.
Overbay IS Future Murphy, with worse platoon splits. Also, as you pointed out, he's more expensive.
| Bring up minor league SS prospect Tejada. He can field at least as well as, if not better,as any of the FA shortstops available. |
And he hits at least as well as Berroa. I don't mean this as a compliment, either.
I could see doing this. For very little.
This, not so much.

Marquis MAY be worth this much per year. I'm pretty sure Wolf isn't taking this little. (Wolf's the better pitcher.)
| Find a doctor who could give Angel Pagan a brain transplant. |
This could be fun. And, considering the Mets' medical track record, it's guaranteed to go well.
Then, figure out what to do with Luis Castillo and adding to the bullpen.
Keep him unless you get an offer for something better that fits the team needs?
I like the overall gumption, MFS, but... yoy. And minus a few healthy years, Reyes-- a SS with about 5 times the power that LF Lou Brock ever had-- is already close to as valuable as Brock ever was.

People always seem to think the trade was a bad idea, but really, the Cubs were correct in trading Brock. People forget Brock was a terrible fielder (you can argue the importance of fielding average, but I don't think anyone would argue that an outfielder like Brock who fielded .959 is a good fielder -- and other fielding statistics confirm this). The only position he was able to play was LF -- and the Cubs had arguably a better player there (lifetime .OPS 100 points better; OPS+ of 133 vs. Brock's 109). Brock was traded mostly because there was no place to play him, not because he was great (or even potentially great) at his position.
Broglio OTOH won 18 games the year before the trade and had a lifetime ERA+ up to that point of 120. No way anyone would have predicted he'd fall apart in Chicago.
The moral: a perfectly reasonable trade (like the ones people are suggesting here) can look pretty terrible years later. If we were Cubs fans back in 1963, we'd be thinking that this was a steal.

Brock was a mildly-overrated offensive player-- the speed and baserunning ability were superlative, but he didn't hit much, get on that much and appears from all sides-- see RealityChuck's bit-- to have been a terrible defender, speed inclusive.
And this has been covered elsewhere much better, but the Hall gatesmen haven't always done the best job sifting "great" from "pretty good for a while."

Brock stayed healthy, played a long time, got 3,000 hits, and retired (and came before the Hall of Fame) with two high-profile records. It's a shame that his thread is becoming about him, because whether or not Reyes is traded shouldn't really be a based on whether or not he is better 'n' Lou Brock. We're going to fall into tangents on peak value and career value and league context and how many different contexts Lou's career spanned and whatnot.
A healthy Reyes is a valuable thing --- not to mention signed through 2011 --- and not something to be dealt lightly. I'd be particularly wary of trading him after an injury-shattered year.
If his legs come out healthy during the first half, I might get to work on an extension. I'd really like to see him dropped a bit in the order, because he has to look seriously at embracing the point in his career where his legs are not his bread and butter, but his skillz.

Lou Brock is a deserving Hall of Famer … but an overrated Hall of Famer. And more than mildly so. In fact, if Lou Brock were active today, and the same age as Jose Reyes, I’d rather have Reyes on my team instead of Brock if forced to choose between one of the two without the benefit of knowing Brock’s future performance beyond Reyes’ present chronological age, but mainly because Brock ain’t no shortstop.
And speaking of Reyes and leadoff-hitters, I might as well segue into the theme of this thread with my one move, which would be to keep Luis Castillo and move him into the leadoff spot in the batting order. Castillo, as flawed as he is, is still the best damn leadoff hitter the Mets have had in the last ten years ever since Rickey Henderson’s 1999 season: he’s certainly a more qualified leadoff hitter than Reyes. Reyes,–my proposed number two hitter who draws less walks than Castillo but drives the ball better than Luis - would be able to move Castillo around the bases far more efficiently than Castillo ever advanced Reyes. I have zero expectations of the Mets ever making this move even though, to my thinking, it’s unquestionably the right move. I’m becoming resigned to the fact that the Mets are run by a bunch off nincompoops who probably care more about the marketing of Jose Reyes and his image as a stolen base guy than actual production and that those two reasons alone will keep Reyes in the leadoff spot.
Plus, one added benefit of having Castillo bat leadoff is that you’ll almost never ever see Castillo squaring around to bunt about 45 seconds before the pitcher goes into his windup anymore. I suppose that nobody, not even the Mets, not even Wee Willie Small Ball’s Mets would ask their leadoff hitter to sac bunt with nobody out and nobody on base.

All that, of course, is on the manager and not the general manager.
One of the saddest episodes of last season was that after Jerry openly toyed with the idea of batting Castillo leadoff during ST (to the howls of the closed-minded everywhere) he not only turned away from the idea but did so even after Reyes went down.

Yes, that was a shame, and I do believe it has much to do with the Mets making an effort to build an identity around the idea of Reyes as their leadoff hitter.
I have to say, as abhorrent as I find the MFYs and their marketing, their strategy of using the organization itself as the selling point -- and not necessarily the individuals comprising it -- probably holds less downside. For the Mets I think this effort has tended to interfere with strategic decisions (like shifting Reyes in the order) and to an extent dictating the moves of the front office (the mets as a "superstar" driven team, cannot almost by definition shop for a relief pitcher without being obligated to pay top retail for the biggest name with the most saves, for example). It handicaps them.

This is a conversation unto itself. Let's just say that this seems to vary widely-- WIDELY-- from clubhouse to clubhouse. The manager's primary JOB is organizing field strategy, and very few successfully-run businesses I know-- sports-related or otherwise-- opt for management doing the jobs of their subordinates.

Not that those were mgmt-directed necessarily or mattered in the outcome of a game or season, but both (and other examples) could be seen as the result of a climate that prefers to trumpet certain individuals or accomplishments rather than the overall brand.

GMs have a say in strategy to the extent that they should be hiring folks who have a philosophy that they agree with.
So, no, I don't think Minaya et al are upstairs calling for specific in-game strategies; I suspect it's probably more a case where the front office is more or less indifferent (or at least neutral) to the idea that one concept is so much better than the other to the point where they're also not insisting on the converse. But I've seen Oakland teams do enough 'non-Moneyball' things also and Beane, to my knowledge, has never replaced a manager in-season or at anytime other than at the end of contract time. Maybe that's as much a case of not being able to eat the dollars as anything else but it also shows he's not dictating in-game decisions.
In the end, the batting order and dugout calls are up to Jerry.

At this point I've started to lose track of how and why this comparison even started, but it seems to me that YOU are the only one comparing the accomplishments of a still-young player to the entirety of another player's career and acting as if you've found something profound when the two don't match.
And you might want to check on the comparisons at similar points in their respective careers before you decide that he's "not even on the path". Reyes compares favorably across the board - including being significantly better in both SBs & SB%.

The 1974 NL MVP is one of my least favorites. In a perfect world, 1974 NL MVP Steve Garvey wouldn't have received a single vote: the voters can only select their top 10 candidates and in 1974, there were at least 15 NL'ers who had a better season than Garvey. Therefore, if Garvey wasn't one of the leagues 10 best players, he shouldn't have appeared on any voter's ballot. Garvey wasn't even the best player on his own team in 1974. The Dodgers best player that season was 1974 SI cover boy and the perenially screwed over in MVP voting guy -- Jimmy Wynn.
I would have given the '74 MVP to Joe ("how can such a smart baseball player be so stupid otherwise?") Morgan, thus eventually giving Morgan a run of three consecutive MVP's.

No, he's not. He's mostly known for being an absolute stud shortstop, probably the second best in the league over the course of his young career. And while it's premature to put him in the HoF, it's not premature to look at him and realize that if he keeps up what he's doing for long enough, he will be a hall of famer. According to B-R's HoF stats, he's about a third of the way there already. 2006, 2007 and 2008 are three hall-caliber seasons. Will he need five or six more? Sure, but he's only going into his age-27 season; and while no one can accurately project any player ten years ahead, I think there's more than an outside chance that when you watch Reyes play, you're watching a future hall of famer entering his peak.

| Russell Martin, C, Dodgers: With nine arb-eligible players, plus an owner embroiled in a messy divorce, LA is looking to cut costs. Though Martin is only 26, his stats have been trending downward for two seasons. He made $3.9 million this year and had just 26 extra-base hits, so his 2010 salary could outweigh his production. |
That's from Buster Olney's blog this weekend. I'd definitely jump on getting him even if it means he'll be making about $6 million. If we're spending that much on a catcher, rather it be on him than Molina. Like Buster said, he's 26 and I just think he had a down year. And this opens up a spot for Figgins (see my post).
So, add Castillo for Martin to my GM moves. And delete signing Barajas.

Yes. It's disgraceful how long it's been since the Mets have suited up a Canadian. The last one, if my history is correct, was punchless third-string shortstop Brian Ostrosser in 1973.
It's strange. The Mets always seem to have their share of Canadian prospects, but none of them ever seem to blossom.
We can sit around forever waiting for Jean-Luc Blaquiere (.238 in Savannah this year) or we can be pro-active and correct this injustice.

Bill Jmaes rates Martin as one of the players that will do better next season in his Strong Seasons Leading Index with a score of 24....
A score of 24 or higher indicates a better-than 50% chance the player will sustain or improve the following season
http://waswatching.com/2009/11/20/thtja ... -09-in-10/
I got this form a Davidoff article so thanks Ken
Strong Seasons Leading Index
It incorporates
1) age,
2) 2009 OPS compared to career OPS;
3) something he calls "Adjusted Ball in Play average," which is like BABIP but gives extra credit to power hitters (since they hit the ball harder, their BABIP is less likely to vary - a pretty cool tweak);
4) comparing a player's 2009 runs scored and RBI to the '08 totals;
5) a player's strikeout/walk ratio in '09;
6) speed, utilizing a formula he designed; and
7) a basic premise that all players' numbers gravitate toward the league average.

Speaking of improvement, check out some of the similar players baseball-reference lists for Daniel Murphy:
http://www.baseball-reference.com/playe ... da08.shtml
Adam Lind and Lee May.(and even Norm Siebern)
The guy had 54 XB hits last year.
I think playing the outfield messed with his head. After moving to first base permanently, he settled down, and so did his swing.
I don't understand the crying need (callers and hosts on NY sportstalk radio) for an upgrade there as opposed to addressing other needs first.

That would render Garvey no better than the third best 1974 Dodger. Did we miss any other '74 Dodgers better than Garvey? (covering a copy of SI in 1974 not required)
|
Apropos to last Fall's discussion of the wretched 1974 MVP ballot won by Steve Garvey, here are the Baseball Reference WAR ratings for the top 10 ranking 1974 Dodgers. According to the BR notes for its WAR formula, a score of 8 or higher is indicative of an MVP caliber season; a score of 5 or more is all-star quality.
1. Jimmy Wynn -------8.6
2. Andy Messersmith--6.6
3. Ron Cey ------------5.2
4. Steve Garvey-------5.1------NL MVP
5. Willie Crawford ----4.1
6. Davey Lopes ------4.0
7. Joe Ferguson -----3.9
8. Bill Buckner--------3.7
9. Bill Russell ---------3.2
10. Mike Marshall-----3.1 -----NL CY YOUNG AWARD WINNER
I was reminded of this old thread while reviewing Jon Matlack’s 1974 season. Matlack’s '74 W-L record was a disappointing 13-15 mark that did not reflect his pitching excellence that season. It would be expecting too much from a mid-‘70’s voting pool to look beyond Matlack’s subpar won-loss record in order to account for the awful run support that plagued Matlack all season long .... especially a voting pool with the collective mindset to award the 20th or so best player in the league with the MVP. Not surprisingly, Matlack didn’t receive a single vote in that season’s Cy Young Award balloting. He should have. Matlack might’ve been the NL’s best pitcher that season. He wasn’t any worse than third or fourth, and unquestionably superior to CY winner Mike Marshall. Here are some selected 1974 stats for Matlack:
WAR---------------8.6(MVP RANGE)-----------------1st among NL pitchers
ERA----------------2.41------------------------------------3RD
ADJ ERA----------149-------------------------------------3RD
K’s------------------195--------------------------------------4TH (TIE)
SHUTOUTS------7------------------------------------------1st
WHIP---------------1.12--------------------------------------3rd (The top 3 pitchers were separated by 2/100 of a point)
ADJ PITCHING WINS ------3.9---------------------------2nd

Not to disagree, but a lot of value scoring systems convert runs (created of saved) into wins, which is grossly unfair to top relief pitchers, because the runs they save tend to be difference-makers.

You can disagree. Disagreeing is more fun than agreeing. So was it fair to Matlack when he gave up one earned run in a 10 inning complete game outing on closing day and took the loss?
http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes ... 0020.shtml
Or when he limited the division winning Pirates to two runs in eight innings in his previous start, but took the loss because the Mets scored just one?
http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes ... 9270.shtml
Or a 7 inn/1 run no decision on 4/14/74?
Or 8 inn/2 runs against the World Champ Dodgers featuring MVP Steve Garvey, the 25th best player in the league on 6/14/74?

Oh, I really don't disagreee. I just think Marshall was better relative to his teammates than he appears in that list. I'm not sure how win shares are calculated by BB-R.com, but I find relievers to be disproportionately scrod in many "win shares" systems.
To review: Marshall was more valuable than Bill Buckner, to my thinking, but not Matlack.

Matlack has the highest rated WAR season for a pitcher with a losing record. He deserved to win at least 20 games in '74.
Wherever a pitcher scored the highest WAR in a particular season but did not win the Cy Young Award, the actual winner is noted.

I'm just going to go with the guess that he was put in a lot more difficult situation with less of a net.
It's very usage-dependent. In 2010, If a guy comes in with one out and a runner on first, he may get one out but allow the runner to third, before getting replaced and the next releiver, who allows that runner to score.
If Mike Marshall comes in with the same situation, he stays in for the duration of the inning with the same events transipiring. He has yielded 100% of his runners to score while the 2010 pair of guys have yeilded only 50%, because one of the guys got out of there without coughing up a run. Right?
As for saves, well, yeah, failing in 28.6% of your save situations is bad, but he's a guy pitching 1.96 innings per appearance (and perhaps more in his save and hold situations) while Mariano Rivera 2010 pitched 0.99 innings. And of course, we're talking about carrying almost three times as many innings for your team.

How does WPA account for inherited runners? If Marshall enters with an inherited runner on second base and two outs, and then immediately gives up a run scoring double, is Marshall debited with the entire run scoring event ... or is the prior reliever also charged with a portion of the run scoring event? Whatever it is, I'm guessing that the disparity between Marshall's 0.3 and the leaders' scores is too large to rack it up to unfairness.

I haven't bothered to look to see how BR calculates WPA, and how the formula accounts for inherited runners. But I'm wondering if defending Marshall's WPA on the supposed unfairness of a reliever entering mid-inning to strand some other pitcher's runners is much ado about nothing. Even if the WPA penalizes a reliever who allows inherited runners to score, this should be offset by the higher score a reliever will earn when he does strand inherited runners.

Re: You're The General Manager

Well, I was defending it only because that was brought up.
I mostly defend relievers based on the tendency to turn runs (and runs prevented) into wins, based on the notion that X Runs = 1 win. I don't think that's fair to releivers, because they are brought in to prevent specific runs based on the leverage those runs mean toward the game.
Basically you don't have to believe in and reward batters and pitchers for an ability to perform in the clutch, but when relievers (and pinch hitters) have nearly 100% of their success (and failure) occur in the clutch, I think that performance should be appropriately wieghted and measured as such.

This list can't be right because it's the same seven pitchers that Grimm guessed.

Last call. I said I'd post the answers at the start of tonight's game but something suddenly came up and so I'll post 'em in 5 minutes.
Thanks for playing.

The seven Mets pitchers are Seaver, Gooden, Matlack, Koosman, Leiter, Santana and Viola. David Cone, whose best Met WAR season, ranked 16th all-time, was the pitcher that threw everyone off. Grimm, and then LWFS, came the closest, guessing 6 out of 7, but incorrectly guessing Cone instead of Leiter. Below is a chart of the top 25 Mets WAR pitcher seasons. Seaver's first 10 seasons(1967-1976) are all on the list. The fabulous and tragic Carlton Willey, who pitched four complete game shutouts for Casey's '63 squad is the extra credit answer. Why is there so much space between this paragraph and the chart that follows?
| Rank | Pitcher | WAR | YEAR |
| 1 | Dwight Gooden | 11.7 | 1985 | | 2 | Tom Seaver | 9.5 | 1973 | | 3 | Tom Seaver | 9.2 | 1971 | | 4 | Jon Matlack | 8.6 | 1974 | | 5 | Tom Seaver | 7.7 | 1975 | | 6 | Tom Seaver | 7.6 | 1969 | | 7 | Tom Seaver | 7.5 | 1968 | | 8 | Jerry Koosman | 6.8 | 1968 | | 9 | Jon Matlack | 6.7 | 1972 | | 10 | Jerry Koosman | 6.7 | 1969 | | 11 | Al Leiter | 6.5 | 1998 | | 12 | Johan Santana | 6.4 | 2008 | | 13 | Tom Seaver | 6.4 | 1967 | | 14 | Frank Viola | 6.3 | 1990 | | 15 | Tom Seaver | 6.0 | 1970 | | 16 | David Cone | 5.8 | 1988 | | 17 | Tom Seaver | 5.8 | 1972 | | 18 | Craig Swan | 5.7 | 1978 | | 19 | Tom Seaver | 5.7 | 1976 | | 20 | Tom Seaver | 5.7 | 1974 | | 21 | Jerry Koosman | 5.7 | 1973 | | 22 | Pedro Martinez | 5.5 | 2005 | | 23 | Sid Fernandez | 5.5 | 1992 | | 24 | Dwight Gooden | 5.4 | 1984 | | 25 | Bret Saberhagen | 5.2 | 1994 |

R.A. Dickey is 6th in IP/WAR and is on pace to knock Johan/2009 off of the Mets top #50 (see post above) Johan/2010 might also knock Johan/2009 off of the top 50. But first, some blank lines.

Updated.
Johan Santana makes the biggest gain on the WAR chart, moving up two places and reducing his IP/WAR by about four innings. As of now, Santana's 2010 season ranks as the 44th all time best Mets pitcher WAR season. Teammate R.A. Dickey takes the worst hit in the NL pitcher WAR rankings, (2.6 to 2.1) dropping out of the top 20 and falling to 25th place. Dickey's IP/WAR increases by 10 innings.

Mets all time pitcher WAR seasons 26-60, up to date, including Johan's 2010 season (#44). Pound per pound per WAR, the Mets all time best pitching season might be Armando Benitez's 1999; he racked up a 3.5 WAR score in just 78 innings. Armando's dominant IP/WAR in 1999 was 22.29. Seaver (1967) is not the only Wes Westrum managed pitcher to crack the top 60.

The top 100 Mets pitcher WAR seasons, then ranked according to IP/WAR. Or ... which Mets pitcher seasons might've generated the best Strat-O-Matic cards. An IP/WAR of 40 begins to approach dominance.
Not surprisingly, seven of the top 10 IP/WAR seasons were turned in by relief pitchers, who generally pitch at a more intense pace than starters, given that they're not expected to throw more than 30-40 pitches per appearance, if even that many.

The top 100 Mets pitcher WAR seasons, then ranked according to IP/WAR. Or ... which Mets pitcher seasons might've generated the best Strat-O-Matic cards. An IP/WAR of 40 begins to approach dominance.
Not surprisingly, seven of the top 10 IP/WAR seasons were turned in by relief pitchers, who generally pitch at a more intense pace than starters, given that they're not expected to throw more than 30-40 pitches per appearance, if even that many.

Updated through games of 9/3/10. Lincecum rejoins the top 20 at the expense of our own R.A. Dickey, whose last start was his worst in more than two years and easily, Dickey's worst start as a knuckleballer and as a Met. Johan regains the 6th spot with a strong though injury shortened outing. Still, the gap between Santana and this year's elite NL pitchers is considerable, if not mathematically insurmountable.

| Looks like Ollie could still get off of that hook. |
He might. But over the past three weeks, Ollie has solidified his status as the lone Met pitcher who owns two of the 20 worst WAR seasons in Mets history. His 2010 season is now the 18th worst, up (or down) from 20th worst. Ollie's current contract has to be in the running for worst ever given to a Met:

There must be a lot of work going into those charts.
But, how is all that information about players, and years, long past going to help me as General Magager (the title of the thread)?
But wasn't this thread was going to be about what we would do to make the club better?

The original charts took some time. The updates aren't nearly as time-consuming as you suspect. I wrote the code in MS Word and saved it. I also saved any entries for pitchers that dropped out of the top 20 (e.g. Yovani Gallardo), should they drop back in. So updating the charts is simply a matter of shuffling the order of the entries and updating some stats. I don't need to write any more code.

The top 50 Mets pitching WAR seasons, all-time, in chronological order. Despite missing the last month of this season, Johan's 2010 ranks as 34th best Met season ever, displacing Jesse Orosco's fabulous 1983 campaign from the Mets top 50. R.A. Dickey misses the top 50 by a few knuckles, checking in at 56th all time best Met pitching WAR.
