Omar on the verge of getting signed for 4 more years. Hmmm, so I guess when Wilpon said at the end of last year that it was Omar's decision on whether to retain Willie and he would "sink or swim" with him, he wasn't worried about sinking with Manuel?
At the end of the day someone has got to be held accountable for relying heavily on old and/or injured players with questionable futures (Alou, El Duque, Pedro, Sanchez, Valentin, and Castillo, to name a few). And that someone is Omar if we don't advance in the playoffs this year, especially given the payroll.
Let's be honest: while Omar has made some good trades, I think there are a lot of GMs who could step into his situation and do a good job. His situation being that he's given the largest payroll in NL (and consistently top 5 in all of baseball), and only needs to put together a 90-win team to make the playoffs each year.
