When you look at the rest of the team and consider the expectations in the spring, there are some guys that surprisingly have Value. Alderson picked up Isringhausen off the scrap heap, now teams are inquiring about him as the deadline nears. Chris Capuano was acquired on the Cheap, now he would be a great fit for a team looking to round out it's starting five. Daniel Murphy has hit well this season and may also have some value.
Although I haven't heard Daniel Murphy's name in trade rumors, I really hope Alderson is shopping him to the American League. He has hit really well this year but he will never be a serviceable fielder. He belongs in the A.L. Send him there while he's Hot.

In the bottom of the 10th, tied at 5-5, and 1 out, Angel Pagan crushed the first pitch he saw over the right field wall. Giving the Mets a nice dramatic 6-5 win over the Cards. And also the Mets first walk off HR of the year (bout time). This win puts the Mets back over the .500 mark again.
It was pretty neat to see that ball head right towards the booth with the SNY bros. Overall, great game to watch, I only wish for more soon! |

Very enjoyable game to watch again tonight. Mets were resilient, showing fight, showing they wanted the W bad enough. They came back twice, once down 4 runs to tie and then again to tie it at 5-5. And then... the bomb from Pagan. Mets win.
Niese on the mound tomorrow, bring out the brooms. |

According to ESPN's Buster Olney, the Mets are now 100% sure they will not trade Jose Reyes this July..

If Carlos Beltran is dealt and I regret that that is likely, I would think that the Indians or Pirates would be better partners for the Mets. Both would want the cash the Mets are offering in a deal and both through years of selling likely have better prospects to offer than the Phillies who have been buyers.
