Thread: Memo to Furcal: We haven't been eliminated yet.

    Braves Memo to Furcal: We haven't been eliminated yet.

    Rafael Furcal has purportedly let it be known he would be willing to play second base for the Mets.
    Furcal will be a free agent after the postseason. The Mets want to upgrade the position , even if that means buying off Kaz Matsui's remaining contract.


    That ain't right.

    You know what? If he wants to leave, then let him leave. I'd love to have Raffy back, but at this point I'd rather have Farnsworth than Raffy.

    You'd rather have Farnsworth play SS than Furcal? You're an idiot. Furcal knows that they aren't eliminated yet. Someone probably asked him a question and he answered it. No big deal. I amsure he isn't up to the plate wishing he were a Met watching it at home.

    No, I'd rather keep a dominant closer than a good SS. Betemit can fill in adequately at SS. We have Elvis waiting in the wings.

    Dominant? Where did this come from? Farnsworth isn't gonna cost that much anyway. You can have both.

    I wouldn't trust Farnsworth... but he will probably work out. I'd let Furcal go.

    Furcal can go.

    Betemit ain't bad. And we got two really good SS in lower AA ball who look promising.

    I'd love to keep Furcal around for 3 more years. 3 years 24 mil would be my offer. If he doesn't accept..then let him walk.
