Johan was 5 years younger than Halliday is now when he signed that deal and would already have a contract for his 33 year old deal. He is worth a 4/5 year deal for 20 per, but not 6/7. If he wants 6/7 he should get less per year. I would be more than willing to give up the prospects, but I am not sure he is worth the prospects and 140 mil. However, if we could manage to make the post season, Santana - Halladay - Wolfe - Perez/Maine? I find it hard to figure out a way to beat that.

Already past his prime and will be looking for 6-7 years extension. You will be paying for what hes done for the blue jays more than what he will give the Mets. Kinda like Pedro and Glavine but only worse. At least they didnt cost any prospects. My problem with Halliday is that he is 33. Already past his prime and will be looking for 6-7 years extension.

Then go out and get Bay or some other LF and we should be good to go. Still need a better bench, still need to draft better. but if mgt is serious about spending money, this is the way to do it.

I would give up Pelf, FMart, Jenrry and perhaps Tejada as you suggesst. This guy is a bonafide #1. Johan has had surgeries 2 years in a row which is starting to bother me. If we could get one of Niese or Holt to be part of the rotation in a year I think we would be ok. Pelf will never be our #2. It is a lot, but I feel FMart will never be what he is hyped to be. Even if he is we are not drafting the pitchers we need and he is here now. Bird in the hand and all that. I would get Halladay.
