Jordany Valdespin to ‘Los Marlinsitos”

Hey, I got a great idea.

Why don’t the Mets trade IF Jordany “There Isn’t A Routine Grounder I Can’t Turn Into a Highlight Film” Valdespin to the team Ozzie Guillen manages?

Can you think of a better team than these two? Forget Bonnie and Clyde… these guys would put Al Capone and Machine Gun Kelly to shame.

Everybody has tried to get ‘Spin’ to grow up. Wally Backman has talked to him. Carlos Beltran talked to him before leaving town. Tim Teufel’s been talking to him for years.

Word is Colin Powell is up next, followed by Kofi Annam of the United Nations.

It doesn’t matter that the team doesn’t need another infielder. Just put him on third and tell that ex-shortstop there to go catch, or something.

And there has to be some white bread, goody-two-shoes second rate prospect in their organization they could send the Mets. You know, someone that makes curfew, turns the phone off… yeah… one of those guys.

“Yeah”, my wife just yelled out. “But, don’t the Mets need him now that Redturn went down?”

Nah. Leave David Wright at short, move Daniel Murphy to third, move Vinnie Rottino to second, and bring up Val Pascucchi. He could double as a backstop.
