Report: Rays, Mets, Indians Talking Three-Way; Rays Would Acquire Victor Martinez
by R.J. Anderson on Jul 30, 2009 10:09 PM EDT
142 comments
According to Mike Silva:
We are hearing dialogue about the Mets/Rays/ and Indians talking about a three way deal. In this scenario Victor Martinez would go to Tampa and not New York. As of now we do not know who the Mets would receive in this scenario.
Only two names make sense here:
1. Scott Kazmir
2. Carlos Pena
Official deadline thread opens at midnight. This could get fun ladies and gents.

I'm not really sure which guy I would rather see gone
Kaz or Pena?

so now we just wait for this years trade deadline expert
Ed Price??
how have I never heard of this guy before and he seems to be the guy breaking most of the deals.

If we have to give up Pena so be it
As much as we’ll miss Pena’s home runs and tobacco-free commercials, we won’t miss his strikeouts. There’s enough talent on our roster to produce offense without him and replacing Navi is too much of a needed upgrade.

It was Jason Tyner
but his giveaway was actually cancelled because they sent him down to AAA about a week beforehand. They never rescheduled it and I believe they eventually gave them to a charity. Funny story that reminds us of how far we’ve come as an organization.

I wonder if there is any chance we make a move for a 1B if Pena gets traded
or if we just go with Aybar and I really hope we don’t trade for Martinez to play 1st everyday.
RJ do you know the contract status of Nick Johnson?

does he cost too much so that we couldn't get him and Martinez
this assuming Pena gets traded.
by Dbullsfan on Jul 30, 2009 10:24 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Martinez + Johnson cost about 11 mil
Pena costs 8 mil

I know dealing with this many ML guys gets messy but would Wheeler cover the extra 3 mil.

Kaz for VMart does make a lot of sense
Navi C/Vmart 1B vs lefties
VmartC/Pena 1B vs righties
Would still be very sad to see Kaz go, but that would be a good move

I am pretty sure...
there will be zero situations in which Navi will play over Pena

Well VMart probably will not catch full time
Given how bad Navi has been vs RHP, it makes sense to catch VMart on those days. Really its a question of VMart vs Pena. VMart 3 yrs .828 vs LHP, Pena about .760

I'm not sure this trade is gonna happen
First off, what would the Mets chip in, they have no prospects, as half of the, are bad or playing right now. And the Indians don’t want payroll, and I can’t see the Mets wanting payroll either, although they do need help at both SP & 1B. Also, if Kaz/Pena goes, where does that leave the team in the pennant race? is 2009 over or is it all for 2010 and Martinez is an injury risk too so can he play everyday at C/1B?

Aybar over Pena
I hope it’s CP23 that goes if this Mets/Indians/rays deal happens…Aybar at least hits for average when he plays, and does have the power to hit 20 homers if he plays everyday.
Kaz for the most part has looked much better since coming back from the DL.
Mets may want Pena, due to Delagado’s age and injuries…not to mention Pena makes much less money, and is an upgrade with the glove.
If this deal happens, I’d say we send Pena to the Mets and Sonny and a prospect to the Indians.
