Jason Bay has already made it clear that he doesn't want to return to the Boston Red Sox and now that the Sox have Mike Cameron on the roster, they don't want Bay back, either.

Mack - with a littel luck and some prayers, the Mets could go into the weekend with both their pen and outfield set.
Meanwhile, talks with 35-year-old catcher Bengie Molina have slowed way down because the Mets don't want to give him a guaranteed third year. - yahoo

According to a report in today’s New York Daily News, New York Mets shortstop, Jose Reyes, visited a scrutinized doctor, Dr. Tony Galea, numerous times. Galea is a physician based out of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, who is noted for using a technique called blood spinning to help athletes recover from injuries more quickly. As described in the article, the blood spinning technique, “involves putting a patient’s blood in a centrifuge to separate the platelets then injecting the blood back into the patient”. -

The other target the Mets are said to be “intently focused” on is Reds starter Bronson Arroyo, who is the subject of “serious talks” with the Mets concerning the right-hander and possibly two other players.
“If Mets just wanted (Bronson), the deal might have been done already,” said one baseball official familiar with the talks. “Mets are also discussing one, maybe two other players with Cincinnati.” He refused to disclose the names, but the early speculation in these parts is that the Mets may have a player under contract hat needs to be moved in order for the deal to be expanded - baseball digest

Mack...I was ok with signing Molina for a 1 or 2 year deal to nurture Santos and Thole along without expecting too much from either one...but now that we have Blanco as a backup, and Molina thinks that he's going to get 3 years; I'm leaning a lot more towards letting Santos/Blanco split time behind the plate until Thole is considered ready defensively...
me to...
but, it ain't over til it's over...
one thing for sure... they will not trade or rush Josh... Omar does not want a repeat of the Jesus Flores mess
