		<description>MLBTradeRumors is giving your site a lot of attention!!! You deserve it.
I agree with you about Manny. The Mets NEED a big-time bat behind the CHOKE boys (Wright and Beltran).
But maybe the Wilpons are TRULY hurting financially because of the Madoff scam.
They seem to low-balling everyone this winter.&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;126935&#039;,&#039;Paul&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Reply&lt;/a&gt;  - &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;126935&#039;,&#039;Paul&#039;,&#039;MLBTradeRumors is giving your site a lot of attention!!!

		<description>Lowe: Until another team makes an offer, I think the Mets are in a GREAT position to sit there and wait.  While the Braves could still snatch Lowe on a bigger offer, it isn&#039;t as if he&#039;s the final option as #2 pitchers go.  Omar is handling the situation correctly.  Listen, Derek, we are interested.  Here is an offer. (It isn&#039;t a FINAL offer, just an offer.) Maybe Omar gets lucky again and doesn&#039;t need to over-pay for talent because he&#039;s the &quot;Big Market&quot;

Ramirez: Does Manny make the Mets the best team in the NL East?  YES!  Should the Mets give Manny a 4-Year Deal?  NO!  I actually see Manny running out of options and being left with the choice of San Francisco or lowering his price to a club closer to contention.  This is where I could see Omar being allowed to make a legitimate 2 Year 3rd option offer.&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;126908&#039;,&#039;Phlavio&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Reply&lt;/a&gt;  - &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;126908&#039;,&#039;Phlavio&#039;,&#039;Lowe: Until another team makes an offer, I think the Mets are in a GREAT position to sit there and wait.

		<description>Krane, I know they had to go that long on Santana, but do you really blame the Mets for not wanting to go more than three years and maybe an option for any pitcher these days, let alone a 36 year old?&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;126757&#039;,&#039;Paul&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Reply&lt;/a&gt;  - &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;126757&#039;,&#039;Paul&#039;,&#039;Krane, I know they had to go that long on Santana, but do you really blame the Mets for not wanting to go more than three years and maybe an option for any pitcher these days, let alone a 36 year old?&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Quote&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>
