As I commented at Rotosynthesis, if we knew the true extant of the Wilpons' loses to Bernie Madoff and their real estate portfolio, we can make more educated guesses about what the New York Mets plan to do for 2010. Like the balance sheets of big banks, assume it is worse than reported. In this case, the Mets will likely play for today but with bottom-of-the-barrel veterans who make 1B Adam LaRoche look like Albert Pujols.
What the team needs to do is something close to what Baltimore did two seasons ago and deal the high priced talent for players in 2011. The players competing for the role of Erik Bedard are Johan Santana (too obvious), Carlos Beltran (they wish) and the brilliant left side of the infield, 3B David Wright and SS Jose Reyes.
