    Wasn't a pissed "mutha," more a wow "mutha."
    Not sure how I feel. I'm OK with losing Schneider though I wasn't pushing for it (Bowden and I talk a lot, don't you know?). I like Church.
    Lots of that ol' upside to Milledge and he wouldn't be the first player to mature. Or the first shithead to make an all-star team.

    But for every good play Milledge makes, there are ton of "Holy fuck, what the fuck does that fucking guy think he doing?" plays. If he gets straightened out, then maybe Minaya has egg on his face.

    But Church and Schneider are good clubhouse guys, and they're respectable in the field and at the dish. As a Mets fan, I'd rather have those two guys than one shithead that seems to be universally disliked by the players in the organization.

    Don't be too sure about Church. Nats started openly questioning his toughness. He ran into the wall in Pittsburgh in '05 and was out a way long time. He handled the Pena trade and reduced role well but before that had a rep as a bit of a whiner.
    Schneider is a very good clubhouse guy, good handler of young pitchers, basically worthless at bat.

    Angelswin.com reports. Ken Rosenthal follows.

    Who would of guessed it?

    Schneider's defensive skills are underrated, I believe - aside from the aforementioned handling of young P's.

    My buddy over at dcbb.blogspot.com (quality blog with, yes, lots of links) loves this deal. He's been raving about it during an e-mail exchange. Says Milledge is better than Church NOW and six years younger. He's never been a Schneider fan. Thinks LoDuca may end up in D.C. Hell, he and Milledge and troll for women together.

    Lo Duca was one of those Mets vets who had little or no use for Milledge's antics.

    Hell, he was cutting into his action!

    Maybe the Nats think Flores is ready. I'm not so sure. I know he's The Truth and all that but not in '08.

    Maybe make a trade with the O's for Ramon Hernandez?
