I'm excited about the prospect of clearing off the Mets' bad contracts, but I don't expect Alderson to blow all $55 million next offseason. Especially since the free agent class next year is godawful outside of Pujols and Fielder.

I think Alderson's actually gonna try and use the Red Sox' recent model of success, especially when it comes to having a farm system that is so stacked that it allows them to make a big trade when necessary. It all starts with the farm.
I wouldn't say all that I think Nick Swisher is a free agent next year and he's been doing real good for us. I wish the Yankees would just sign Cliff Lee all ready. I am starting to get extremely worried. Would you mind taking another look at the 2012 free agents? I know they are not all gonna be free agents but at least half of these guys are really good.

I admit that it's not the best but if you look through there it's not all god awful. The catching free agents is pretty god awful but other then that it's not so bad.
