Quote:There were reports yesterday of the Mets trading Aaron Heilman to the Rays for Lugo.I wonder if the Mets would be interested in Chris Burke in exchange for Heilman. Heilman is a good young pitcher. It is mind-boggling to me that the Mets aren't using him in their rotation. I would rather have Heilman over either Rodriguez or Astacio.

Quote:Lugo played a little 2B when the Rays called up B.J. Upton in 2004- then they realized how terrible Upton was at catching the ball. And am I crazy, or did he fill in a bit at 2B after Biggio went down in 2000?
