I think the best part of the story was that he was actually with the mets farm system for 4 months before being traded to the Padres.

I wonder what cap Bay will wear when he is inducted into the Hall of Fame. Maybe his career will take off like George Foster after he signed with the Mets.

I am going to miss Bay. I suspected that the friendly confines for Fenway Park helped inflate his numbers, but was surprised when the splits showed he actually hit 6 more homeruns outside of Fenway, and his RBI’s and other key stats remain pretty consistant as well. I think its a good move for the Mets.

I would have loved to see Bay stick with the Sox just because he wouldn’t be the one carrying the team. It was perfect for him and I’m not sure why he passed up on it. He went for a payday, didn’t really get it and went from a city he enjoyed playing in to a city that he may be miserable in. Hope it was worth the extra $6 Million.

I’m with you: this is an utter waste of money.
