No question, but you said "time to move him"---move him where? You can't trade a white elephant making $13 million and hitting under .200. No one's going to take him--especially an NL team since all he can do at this point is DH. The Mets aren't going to do a Mo Vaughn thing twice. You're stuck with him until 2010.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
