But apparently they are STILL looking for a #1 catcher after that. Why? If you get Blanco that will now be 4 catchers on the 40-man roster...how many do you need? Santos and Blanco is serviceable enough. Focus on getting a left fielder and starting pitcher.

I guess they figure if they collide all four catchers at high speed than they might actually get one guy that can actually HIT. Why don't you send the Wilpons and e-mail asking them to try and coax Piazza out of retirement? He has bad EVERYTHING and is old, but could still probably put up better offensive numbers in half a season than any catcher on the current roster could put up in a full one.
