Isn't that exactly what the Mets would be doing? LOL
Baty is an ideal change of scenery guy. It's probably settling in that he's on the verge of being a bust....the first extended failures in his baseball career. This could make him the ideal target as he should be as motivated as he's ever been to get to work and turn his career around. No guarantees, but depending on the price, he might be a great target.
