A Blessing

Scott Kazmir doesn't give the Mets much of a chance of making the playoffs:

"It turned out to be a blessing," said Kazmir, the first-round pick from 2002. "If that doesn't happen, I don't pitch in the majors as soon as I did. If that doesn't happen I'm not on this team, sitting in first place and hoping for October."

Of course, if the trade doesn't happen, maybe the Mets aren't one game under .500 wondering who will manage the team next year.

and they might've won just 1 game they needed last year. If they'd just beaten Philly one extra time...

Or that one extra game 2 years ago might have helped too ...

one of the all time worst trades. was then and is now.

FRobby/Milt Pappas, Sparky Lyle/Danny Cater, Jeff Baggwell/Larry Andersen. FRobby and Bagwell both were MVP's, Lyle won the Cy Young. Not to say Kazmir won't do those things someday but he hasn't yet.
