It was on an ESPN "Breaking News" segment. I was hoping the Braves would snatch him up, putting the Mets in an even more dire situation regarding their rotation.

Boo.

With the news that Zito might be going to the Rangers, there goes the two teams most desperate for one of our starters, even though the Mets still might need another one.

I'm pretty sure the Rangers will still need another one.

New York would undoubtedly need another starter. Texas might; depends on whether or not they're persuing other starters.

 

I'd rather Texas lose out on signing Padilla, and another mystery club signs Zito. We need a bidding war between two clubs who have the trading chips Williams desires.

Which is all the more reason that the teams with those chips would overpay a bit for a FA.

The Mets are definitely gonna need another starter. Maybe not an ace but at leat a third or fourth guy. Especially if Pedro continues to decline.
