How Manny more mistakes

Gimme a break.  The mets should have signed Manny when he was a free agent, they should have swooped in last year, and it's a no-brainer now--plus they're willing to take Floyd off our hands.  I know the man makes a lot of dough, but he would instantly bring us credibility -- and a little swagger.  Not to mention the fact that he's a native New Yorker.

Yes, Hillenbrand wouldn't be a terrible pickup -- and Odalis isn't a terrible fallback for Pedro, but is there anyone who doesn't think Manny will continue to be an offensive force for the next 4 years.  Whether Piazza stays or goes, it gets harder and harder to see him as the face of the Mets.  So who will it be? Wright? Too early to tell.  Why not Manny.
