PeterDragon correct me if I am wrong but out of three "untouchable" prospects the Mets have, aren't two of them pitchers, with thrid being Reyes? If the mets can get i guy like Glavine to bridge the gap until those two are ready, they might be alright. I agree that they should have gone after Hampton, but who would they trade to get him? They can't afford much more salary due to the new competitive balance agreements. Who do they have that other teams want making close to what it would have taken financially, to make that trade other than Piazza or Alomar?
