The trade deadline has passed and the Mets did nothing to improve there team because of the supposed help that Minaya keeps telling us is gonna return from the DL. Well I don't think that there is any help coming any time soon, considering that the only one person has started a rehab assignment and that is Billy Wagner. Who would have ever thought that between all the injured players that Wags might be the first one back. Which must be the reason the Mets backed off trading for a lefty today.
Granted Minaya is in a tough spot because the Mets are 6.5 games back in the Wild Card and are behind 7 teams, so they would need an unbelievable stretch to make the playoffs. That being said, this is New York and its there first year in a new ball park so I believe that Mets management owed it to the fans to go out and do something. It didn't have to a big move, just a move to reassure the fans that they are committed to winning and think that this team can make a nice run to finish the year.
I still think that the Minaya will do something if the Mets continue to win, he will find someone useful on a bad team and bring them in via waivers.
