Now thery're reviewing the possibility of Heilman in the rotation. Lima not out of shots yet, but they're re-evaluating.

Probably not trading Milledge and Pelfrey for anyone, but never say never. IOW, blow me away and I'll deal both of them.

Says he probably won't trade Pelfrey and Millage so us fans can get the warm fuzzies watching them grow with the organization.

Mentioned Pelfrey and Soler as options to start. Said he was reluctant to bring up Pelfrey and then emphases how well Soler is pitching. When asked about a trade with a team like Minnesota, Omar says teams aren’t dumping salaries right now, since attendance is up and teams are making money.

Well, Jesus, I'd hope so. But what's left to evaluate about Lima? He's sucked for a year and three starts now. If they were smart, they'd offer Lima as a sacrifice to the umpires union, who seem to have a chip on their shoulders. "Oh great umpires, we humbly beg forgiveness for showing you up over the past month. We have learned our lessons, oh noble ones. As a sign of our contrition, we offer you your biggest tormentor, Jose Lima, to do with as you wish. In return, we ask only that you look favorably upon our pitchers, and stop making bullshit calls at first base. Praise be to you, oh mighty umpires!"

Which is why I consider such "frank discussions with the Mets' GM" slightly less informative than talking to youse guys.

There are no forum pets. Any and all personal attacks will be moved to the red light. So keep it clean, keep it to yourself, or start a thread in that forum. Please.

i think i've let my title as earl grow fallow. in lieu of being reinstated earl, i wouldnt mind taking on the position of forum pet. i mean, as long as there's a good benefits package that includes some sweet business cards.

Willets Point May 19 2006 04:39 PM

OK but you have to wear bunny ears.

Vic Sage May 19 2006 04:43 PM

i couldn't choose the appropriate response to CleonJones, so i'll post a bunch and he can choose whichever ones he likes: I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public. I like you. You remind me of when I was young and stupid. I'm already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth. Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view. Too many freaks, not enough circuses. If I throw a stick, will you leave?

Elster88 May 19 2006 04:47 PM

Post the whole list. It's a good one.

Willets Point May 19 2006 04:49 PM

Take it to the RLF. I don't want to be accused of harboring forum pets. Or having to put that damn Squid suit on again to move out replies if this escalates.

Elster88 May 19 2006 04:50 PM

I think it may be in the Humor thread already.
