I have no interest in being a buyer, regardless how things go, its a flawed team regardless... if somehow we sneak into a wildcard or division title (doubtful), then we we aren't going far

A RH bat can probably be had pretty cheap if its really determined we need one, of course at this point I'd rather just sit Choo and play Rua in those spots

I am always interested in buying, if I can get value for the right price. I don't have any interest in paying through the nose for say Hamels, but adding other pieces, like say a RH bat for the right price might be ok.

Yeah too many holes, and question marks to pretend this team can go anywhere this year. I am still not convinced that Holland and Martin reach their potential after the injuries or at least what we all hoped they would become. Darvish will still be questionable as to how capable he is able to return to form next season as well. May not be as effective again until he's at that 18 month mark, but who knows? Fernandez sure returned to his young self quick.

Doubt many people are selling for value at the deadline, they're trying to get everything they can for as little as possible, maybe in the offseason

Think this is where I probably remember that from, just fodder it appears

There's more pitching talent in the Mets system. Maybe we dangle Elvis.
