Really, so based on what you figure Jacobs could be better than Dunn?

His best season was in 2003, and the injury occurred in 2004. Catching? He
was also DH.

Dunn's talent can offset whatever the Mets have in the system right now.

Is he an All Star pitcher who is logging 200 innings every year?? He is
having his first good season in the ML this season. How old is he now? Do
you think the Mets did wrong by trading him? He has done nothing, and yet
the Mets have the chance to sign him (if they like) during the off season.

What has he done?

The Mets don't have in their system a talented pitcher like R Clemens,
Ruben.

And you have yet to mention those All Star players the Mets have develop
over the past 10 years. Of course, you keep using your technique....just
eliminate the entire post so other people can't see the history so you can
try to avoid questions you CAN'T possibly answer.

Huge Depth? Are you talking about the Braves?

Yep and the Yankees have ARod, Jeter, and Johnson and they are still
battling for a playoff spot. Your point?

Who the Reds or the Mets?

Bla Bla Bla....all Ruben. Again you erased history because you can't answer
questions (how can Jacobs become a better player than Dunn) and now you are
trying to twist the argument. Please Ruben, if you can provide strong backup
don't waste my time. Just go root for the TB DRays.
