Manny To The Mets?

Jon Heyman of SI.com wrote something very interesting in his report today.

"One GM said he believes the Mets will make a big play for Manny Ramirez. It certainly seems like GM Omar Minaya is ready to finally try to land one of his favorite players -- though L.A. may be a better spot for Ramirez, who was raised in upper Manhattan but never liked the fishbowl existence in Boston that he would surely find in New York."

I found this very interesting. I think that "one gm" may be referring to Omar Minaya. Ever since Omar has been a general manager with the Expos, he has wanted to land Manny Ramirez. I would like the move.

Another quote from the report included names like Ryan Church, Luis Castillo and Aaron Heilman.

"The Mets have a group of players they feel will play much better outside of New York. Those players may include Luis Castillo, Aaron Heilman and Ryan Church."

I am just shocked that Ryan Church doesn't seem to like New York. He is a fan favorite and if it wasn't for the concussion he would have been going strong all year. Heilman and Castillo I agree with.
