Well at least we have an idea of what he is asking for. Omar spent a little time on XM radio last night and let us know that Brian Fuentes is looking for roughly a 3 year deal with a asking price of 30-33M . Omar mentions that what he is looking for is what he considers a little high for what the Mets wanted to spend.
Let us hope that Omar is just trying to use that as a negotiating tactic. I mean K ROD is most likely going to get 4 years at about 14M so if they go the Fuentes route you have 1 less year of a commitment.
Also 15 M to spend elsewhere.I love the fact that even leading into Thanksgiving, writers are still looking for a story. Thanks to Adam Rubin for this report which you can read here
Omar also confirms that the Mets are looking into free agent Raul Ibanez. Of course as usual Omar mentions his mantra pitching is the Mets priority.
