There are times when you have a team trying to rebuild. They find a suitor who is close and they are looking for the missing piece that brings them over the top. Enter the N.Y. Mets and their record collapse in 2007. Is there any choice that they have to make a deal. Fernando Martinez, Carlos Gomez, Kevin Mulvey included all as part of one deal for Johan Santana bring back memories when the Dallas Cowboys transformed their organization for years when they made that Deal with the Vikings. In doing so, the Mets already weak farm system will be decimated. But, with the money and resources rolling out of New York, they can easily rebound. However, take this for thought. We know how strong a tandem David Wright and Jose Reyes make as a young tandem for years. However, what if that mix included Scott Kazmir. If they had those three to build around, we might not even be talking about this deal. So, be careful when unloading your prospects. It can have long term lasting effects.
