Mets and DRays

According to the Daily News, the Mets and Tampa Bay are contemplating a trade:

The Mets and Rays are a good fit because each has something the other needs. The Mets must get a closer and cleanup hitter and the Rays have both. The Rays want young starting pitching and the Mets are one of the few teams with a surplus, including Aaron Heilman, Jae Seo and minor leaguer Yusmeiro Petit.

I would expect Mets fans to react to such a trade the way they did to a previous one with the Devil Rays.

Thanks for ruining my morning Dave.

Dave -

If the Mets can't get Wagner, Baez would be a good fit. By all means though they shouldn't trade Heilman or Petit. Seo could go and they have Jason Scobie and Brian Bannister to offer.

Awesome. Maybe the Mets will trade Petit and Heilman for Travis Lee.

A cleanup hitter? Who? Huff? Gomes?

Baez is useful, but really, I'd use Heilman in that role before I'd trade him for a closer (although Heilman's more valuable as a starter).

The only guy I'd really want from Tampa is Kazmir.

The mets wont get back kazmir. They already blew that one.
