Would getting Heilman have been better than our package?

Is Heilman enough to get Swisher, or will the M's have to stomach a ridiculous request from Cashman? Perhaps payback for the Washburn nonsense?

 

3:32 That Washburn stuff wasnt Jack Z, so I doubt there is a grudge. I imagine it would take more than Heilman. mlbtraderumors chat

 

 

 

Would any of you prefer Heilman to the package that we got for Swisher? Betemit, Marquez and Nunez?

 

What if you change it around to make it Heilman OR Betemit, Marquez, Nunez and Viciedo?

 

Or do you prefer to think Heilman ($1.625 million)/Viciedo would be better than Betemit, Marquez, Nunez and Viciedo?

 

 

BTW, did anyone see Ryan Howard is asking for $18 million in arbitration? Wow. Dewon Day cleared waivers and is still with the Rays and Aardsma signed with the Mariners.

I would rather have Betemit than Swisher. Every time I watched him play (granted, not very often), he did something good that helped his team score a run. In that way, he was like Pablo Ozuna in '05.

 

I would also rather have Marquez and Nunez over Heilman so all in all, I think we made out better than standing pat or trading with the Mets.

Is this a serious post? As a Phillies fan, I can tell you that our MVP wasn't Hamels or Howard, it was Aaron Heilmen because without him blowing game after game after game, we don't even make it to the playoffs.

 

I was thinking along the lines of this...

Agreed. I saw a few Mets games last season, and this guy was just terrible, and was booed horrifically every time he took the mound.

 

Pitching in Seattle is the perfect opportunity for him to bounce back though.
