What's the Problem? This is the Problem!
Omar Minaya insists he's in charge of the moves the Met organization makes. Need we say any more?
According to the New York Daily News:
Omar Minaya tried to lay to rest scuttlebutt that he's not calling all the shots in the Mets' baseball operations department, saying on SNY's "Hot Stove" show Thursday night that he has "full autonomy."
"Yes, I do," Minaya told host Kevin Burkhardt. "I know there's been some talk about that, but I have full autonomy." He added, "We feel good about working together and we'll continue to work together (in the front office)." The general manager added that the Mets have not had financial restrictions this winter.
Meanwhile, the Mets continue to court John Smoltz and his former Atlanta teammate, Jeff Francoeur, has been recruiting the pitcher. Smoltz, who turns 43 in May, is considering waiting until midseason to pitch.
Also, the Mets have a one-year agreement in place for utility man Fernando Tatis to return, pending a physical.
John Smoltz???? ... Fernando Tatis??? ... The Gary Matthews trade? ... The inability to lure even the most average talented free agent has-beens to play for this team without overpaying?... Bidding against themselves for Jason Bay?... Are the Mets serious? No wonder Omar's in charge!
