The Mets don't need Soriano. They are cruising to the playoffs. It is just wait and see who we are playing time.

Mets have bought Beltran,Pedro,Delgado,etc,and (although they seem to be offensively "loaded,")won't surprise me if they try to get Soriano.Your right that they aren't that high salaried a team,and that's why I think they could afford to simply rent Soriano.Halos need a bat,but I doubt they get one of any significance.These 5 players on the Mets are all bought.They didn't groom them.Both New York teams are simply greedy,and try to buy rings.Yanks are obviously more pig-like,but the Mets are following their lead.

1. Pedro Martinez 14,875,000
2. Carlos Beltran 13,571,429
3. Carlos Delgado 13,500,000
4. Tom Glavine 10,500,000
5. Billy Wagner 10,500,000
