Heilman

It's time for Mets to trade Heilman. He is not going to be a good reliever, and I doubt we're ever going to let him be the starter he wants to be. Let's consider him tradeable as part of a package.

BTW, I'm sure glad we didn't roll the dice on free agent Gagne in the offseason like I had suggested last year. (insert sarcasm here.) Who needs a guy with 1.23 ERA, 0.92 WHIP, 2-0 w/14 SVs to 1 BLSV, at a cost of only $6 M for one season, without giving up any trades??? If we had taken a chance, we would now have the option of trading either Wagner or Gagne, both of who's stock is through the roof, and could've parlayed that into a meaningful starter. But it's a good thing we held onto that $6M instead. Otherwise how would we have paid Alou, Sanchez, Green, ...?
