"I use this analogy," [Peterson] said. "I ask them, 'Do you like vanilla ice cream?'
'Yeah.'
'Do you like ketchup?'
'Yeah.'
'Do you like ketchup on your vanilla ice cream?'
'Not a good mix.' "
Great analysis here, MP. We do some of this analysis over at Flushing U, where we have a lot of knowledgeable minor league folks. You are right on the dime with the only guy left is F-mart...and according to the stories, we may even see him this year! So then we really got crap. LOL But seriously, as a lifelong Mets fan, I have seen this organization hype up overrated prospects just to have them make it to the bigs, suck, then get traded for scrubs, or those who become self-fulfilling prophecies (like Milledge, well, I disagree with that myself b/c I think he could be flashy but he's a decent kid nonetheless) and all of a sudden become "problems." In any case, I guess they want to trade Niese for a Santana-like guy, but it's not gonna happen.

This confirms my suspicions.
