Milledge is already as good as Ryan Church. That is the problem. [/ QUOTE ] Wrong. Where are you getting this from? edit: where i got the contract info is shady, so I'm not sure when Church is a FA. I'll check cot's. well they just have his year-to-year status. f it. |

I guess given Lastings' 704 OPS against right handed pitching (small sample), he's got some work to do. Church should outperform him, but not by much - what's the new Nats ballpark like anyway? I know the old one was the biggest pitchers park in the league so that deflates Church's numbers. |

Re: *** Official NY Mets Our OFFSEASON Has Come Thread ***
if we get a big pitcher (johan, haren, bedard) i can live with this trade. Church isnt awful. I just think milledge had more value than this ... apparantly not i guess.
im assuming they will nontender estrada now and save the cash unless he is packaged somewhere |

Re: *** Official NY Mets Our OFFSEASON Has Come Thread ***
My lame attempt:
1. This was a trade to appease Cameron. I can't grade this fairly. 2. B 3. A 4. B 5. A 6. A- 7. B 8. D- 9. D 10. F- 11. B+ 12. B 13. C ~ I like Church alot but I just have a hard time believing Minaya couldn't do better than Church + Schneider for Milledge. Disclaimer: I put next to zero thought into this. |

He's rated highly defensive metrics so his Rate stats seem believable. An 800+ OPS in a severe pitcher's park is pretty good. And the Mets get his prime seasons without waiting on any development for Milledge. Milledge would've likely been a well below average regular this season. |

so I'm not sure when Church is a FA. [/ QUOTE ] Metsblog is saying he will be FA after the 2010 season. |
