mets get perez and hernandez from pirates

the mets just traded xavier nady for starting pitcher oliver perez and set up man roberto hernandez from the pirates...this could be a great trade for the mets, while nady had been pretty solid he was nothing spectacular and the mets have the depth in the OF to replace him w chavez, and probably bringing up milledge....i have to believe this deal was made due to duaner sanchez being out for the season after separating his shoulder in a car accident...with him out the mets clearly were looking for some pitching help, they got hernandez back as a set up man, who was lights out for them last yr, and they get perez who is a very talented left handed starter who throws smoke..if he can get it figured out their pitching staff becomes very dangerous to go along w that potent offense..good move by minaya imo

wow even better....the mets send newly acquired perez plus heath bell to SD for scott linebrink....now the mets pen is stacked with linebrink, hernandez, heilman all in front of wagner...still would like to see them get one more SP to go along w pedro, glavine, trachsel, el duque and the youngsters they got tho...maybe livan?
