The A's let Zito go because they knew they had Haren and Blanton plus a sometimes healthy Harden.
HIghly doubtful they'll let Haren go for at least a couple more years when he becomes valuable.
Beane will obviously listen to anyone in hopes he'll rape them (like the deal that got him Haren), but I'd bet money Haren doesn't go anywhere.
If the Mets weren't going to spend $130 million on Zito, do you think they'll spend the $175 million it's going to take to get Zambrano?
None of those other pitchers are especially good. Though in the NL, they'd probably put up 2.5 ERAs
