Re: *** Official NY Mets Our OFFSEASON Has Come Thread ***
If they do keep Gomez this prolly means Fernando Martinez could be traded. Right? What happened to Guerra too?

[ QUOTE ] If I had to trade an outfielder Gomez would also be my choice. We already have a Gomez except his name is Chavez. [/ QUOTE ] I don't believe this is true at all. Chavez is a part-time player who failed miserably when given two chances to be an every day player. He is a very nice role player. He's also going to 30 next season. Gomez will be 22. Most say he is faster than Reyes, perhaps the fastest in the majors. Contrary to what we saw this year, he's shown some power in the minors at a very, very young age. A lot of players (such as Reyes) will develop power as they get older and fill out. I understand the expectation is that Gomez will do so. I would be very, very reluctant to trade this guy. [/ QUOTE ] Gomez has a lot of upside sure. So did Alex Ochoa. All I was trying to say though is that if Omar had to trade either Gomez or Milledge to land a top of the line starter or something I would rather trade Gomez. Gomez isn't going to give us much more in the next 2 years than Chavez is. And by then this Martinez kid might be ready to seriously contribute. That's all I was trying to say. Beyond that the sky is obviously the limit with Gomez. |

Why don't we just make an NL East offseason thread? This thread is the epitome of depression.

If you ask me whether to trade Milledge or Gomez, it would be Milledge no contest. That guy is going to be a headache.

Re: *** Official NY Mets Our OFFSEASON Has Come Thread ***
yea, milledge is a younger version of bradley and this will drive me nuts anyway....wh1t, i see ur point and if we can somehow line up a trade for a front liner starter, then by all means dump him...we've had our oachas, escobars, etc...but our OF could use a future replacement for alou and possibly milledge if it comes to that...will martinez be ready by then??

Re: *** Official NY Mets Our OFFSEASON Has Come Thread ***
I can't see the Mets doing anything with Martinez or Guerra until at least 2009. Nor would I want to see either in a NY Mets uniform anytime before that.

I'm just higher on Milledge than Gomez from a pure production standpoint. It's easy for me to do that obviously since I don't have to deal with either of them on a day-to-day basis. |

Re: *** Official NY Mets Our OFFSEASON Has Come Thread ***
People are acting absurd in drawing conclusions about Gomez's ability to hit at this stage of his career.
