Today Tampa Bay exercised the $10M option on soon to be Mets LF, Carl Crawford.
As I have Stated Before, I would love to have Crawford patrolling LF for the Mets for years to come. I am a bit shocked that Tampa picked up his option, but if they look for the "sign and trade" option, they will make out better on their return.
I would love to see the Mets make a play, but I don't really think they have the arsenal to pull off the deal. An outfield of Crawford, Beltran, and Francoeur would be a place where triples and doubles go to die, in the expansive Cul-de-sac's of Gil Hodges Memorial Park.
Watching that trio in the Mets OF would be like watching a coach hit fungo's; nothing would drop in...
Just a little bump in the road Mets fans. Crawford will be starting in LF on opening day for the Mets*
