We all have an idea of what we want the New York Mets to do at the trade deadline. What about the actions we want them to avoid?
David Stearns had his share of hits and misses last year with the Mets. Some of the players added midseason took a while to be major contributors. No one was fully consistent, whether it was Phil Maton fading late or Jesse Winker disappearing for all of September offensively.
Mistakes will be made amongst the flurry of moves coming our way. If Stearns does any of these, he risks entering the doghouse.
