According to John Delcos(The Journal News) and David Lennon(Newsday), the New York Mets have some level of interest in acquiring Relief Pitcher Derrick Turnbow. Turnbow was DFA'd by the Brewers a few days ago, so we'd likely have to trade for him. Clearly the Brewers would eat some of his contract...the question is what would Milwaukee want in return, and could a move to NY help him?

I think that the move could really fix Turnbow, the problem is, I don't know what the Mets could offer Milwaukee. Any thoughts?

Yes, adding Turnbow to the Mets will be a huge addition. Did I say addition? I meant mistake. He couldn't handle Milwaukee but he can handle New York? Don't do it Minaya.

Pathetic Stat of the Year- Matt Cain has a 3.74 career ERA, but has won just 30 of his 104 starts.

Well, if they can add him with an MLC, I think it is something that could work out. I don't support giving him any guarantees, but if he can prove he can return to the way he was, then he could help any team

He'll just cause more heart attacks.


Second, I'd slap NYGF because he just seems to have it coming for him. I swear man you wouldn't last 5 minutes in California before you got your ass kicked. So I'd be doing him a service too. -hot corner gurl

Can he be any worse than Jorge Sosa?

Well, yeah, his ERA and WHIP are double Sosa's

True. But Jorge got bailed out because of some runs being called unearned despite his poor performance. I mean, I think Turnbow (if he can find himself again) can be a good middle reliever

He is worth a MLC gamble. I truly feel he has some left in the tank. I think a change of scenery was necessary in this situation.

So now the Mets want the right handed John Rocker.

Minus all the crap that he said about NY(LOL even though I did find it hilarious)
