The NY METS just traded David Wright for Santa Claus, 2 of his older elves and a reindeer to be born later.

I dont like the trade at all - but at least the kids in NY will be happy.

Claus did always remind me of the Babe ... think of what this will do to the gate for the Mets. The kids will be dragging their parents to all of the games .. the Mets can change their official colors to Christmas Red/Green. They will rack-up on candy-canes at $2.00 a pop at the concessions.

They can finally afford to bring in a player who is both good AND young.

Which Reindeer?? Hope it was Comet .. the Mets need to improve their running game.

HHH,

Good guess. Yes it was Comet.
Minaya and Mets management believe that Comet's genes would be the best to go for. Good speed and large hooves.

Offspring should be a tough baserunner - sliding hooves up and using the antlers as well.

Mets go very deep in their research.

HHH,
What would you call the guy they traded away to get santa?

Mets fans should hope that Santa fails the physical!

PG,

If Mo Vaughn passed the Mets rigorous standards - I am sure Santa will be OK.

Older elves?...they looked more like waifs to me, but who am I to be the judge?

Dave didn't fit the "Mets Mold" .... He broke the cardinal rule by also be "Affordable".

Have you examined them carefully for pumkin stains??? They may have been spying on you and reported you to the "School". You know how mean-spirited they can be after kicking someone out of Elf School.

You've heard about that neighborhood around Shea...I'm hoping and praying that it was only pumkin stains! Getting close enough to those rascals to examine them carefully is well beyond my expertise or desire.

As far as being mean-spirited...just drop the spirited part...they're down right, plain, old mean! End of story!
