I like the trade for NY. El Duque seems to have his head on right.

I'm not exactly sure what the Diamondbacks got out of this trade, other than about $2 million less in salary...which doesn't make much sense as long as they're on top of the NL West -- unless they're freeing up some money for the trade deadline.

I like El Duque and hope he does well anywhere he goes.. I think the Mets got the better end of the deal here.

This can mean the difference in going to the World Series or losing to the Cards. Arizona was very foolish. Being in the top of the NL West he could of won 2/5 games for them in the 1st round of the playoffs. He is one of the most clutch pitchers in the game. As a Yankee fan, I also hope he does well wherever he goes.

The Mets definitely got the best of this one. I hope he becomes the fifth starting pitcher the Mets need.
