    Benson for Julio?

    Reports on espnnews say the mets are close to finalizing a deal that sends Kris Benson to the orioles for reliever Jorge Julio.

    Well..not like we have a great deal of hope for Julio as anything more than a setup guy who isn't quite wired right in the head....

    We're not going to be competing for a division title or playoff spot anyway... our SP has a few rough gems, but nothing 1-5 that is great.. Benson would probably be a #3 starter.... possibly higher, depending on what the O's would do with him coaching wise....

    All I would say if this does happen would be directed at Julio.. and that would be "Dont let the door hit you, where the good Lord split you..."

    Why would anyone want Benson at $7mil/yr?

    I know... only once in his career over 200 IP.. career ERA over 4....

    But SP is more of a need for Baltimore than RP.... and Benson does have talent, just never panned thru with it.... I do think there may be something more to the deal though, not just 1 for 1... maybe a PTBNL or a bit of ca$h

    Reports out of Baltimore and New York suggest that the Orioles deal to get starter Kris Benson from the Mets for reliever Jorge Julio will likely not happen.

    MSG reported it a done deal earlier today, and then 45 minutes later pulled it off the site. It is believed that Mianya wanted Adam Loewen in addtion to Julio and that was/is the snag.
