Buster Onley reports La Russa re-signed to multi year deal, and they fired their hitting coach. Mark McGwire is supposedly the top candidate

Hmm, McGwire will definitely be a big distraction, press wise, and we'll probably see more of him sitting on the bench than the actual players for the first week or so.

They shouldve just signed Pujols as the hitting coach. Mcgwire could learn a thing or 2 from Pujols. Like accountability......

There have been player/coaches before. He would be just another one on that long list.

The Mets will be the main player for Matt Holliday, with the Giants and Braves in the mix as well. In addition to the Cardinals, the Red Sox and Yankees are also contenders for the star outfielder.
It seems more and more obvious that the Mets are going to really go after Holliday. I am very undecided, we do need a power bat in the outfield. But we also need a good #4 hitter who can come up in the clutch.

Yea, but I dont see Beltran or Wright anymore suited for #4 than Holliday. Maybe Wright, but I would rather have Holliday at #4.

Wright FTMFW. He's my favorite player as well, he had a down year and a pretty bad injury. I think he will pick it up next year. It would be nice if we moved the OF fence 10ft closer, lol.
