The Mets minor league system is in shambles. The last time the team assembled prospects was under Minaya. In that capacity, this actually might have been a good move.

But not as irksome as the Mets not inquiring or insisting on a medical exam as is their right. Ball players often try to mask or hide injuries. You have to expect that as management. But if there was any indication it has to be investigated and if their training staff didn’t know, that is on the Mets medical personnel. Again.

The logo that is front and center on the cap is your brand. Your team logo is your brand. Your mascot (with rare exceptions) is not.

I’m only comparing Dickey to Bonilla in that Dickey is at a point where he will never be this good again just as Bonialla was when the Mets signed him away from the Pirates.

Dickey has succeeded in New York, Bonilla did not. Dickey is at his peak now. And honestly has been consistent for 3 years. He is not a risk in that respect. There are compelling arguments to both signing and trading him: Signing him is signing a proven player who does not wilt under pressure and strengthens the strength of the team. Trading him: Allows the team to (with smart scouting) add pieces that could become valuable down the line and at a time when the Mets have a better chance to succeed than they will throughout the remainder of Dickey’s likely career expectancy. I would make a substantial offer, but I would not break the bank for him. (Not that the Mets ever do).

I hate that punk. Like it or not, Johnson’s dance costed the Bills that game.
