The Mets are way ahead of last year in one respect, their shortstop looks phenomenal.Jose Reyes is the one player the Mets should keep, but they have shown absolutely no inclination of signing him to a deal. The free-agent-to-be is as good as gone.
"Someone is going to get a great player at the trade deadline," said one scout at last night's game against the Nationals.
David Wright said he is hoping he doesn't lose his infield buddy and that the Mets should re-sign him.
"Yeah, that's the kind of guy you want [on your team]," Wright said before the Mets' 5-2 victory over the Nationals last night. "I don't know if he'll admit it, but I think he has a lot to prove, and I think he wants to go out there and prove he's one of those elite players of the game, which I believe he is." (Post)
