And the health issue is still going to be a major problem for the next few weeks as only Young and Thome will be back before June (Repko doesn't count--Jason Repko is terrible).
I usually don't panic, but I do think it is time to work a trade to bring in somebody. Far and away the most obvious player is Jose Reyes. The Mets need starting pitching and outfield depth. Maybe they need some middle relievers. The Twins are deep in those areas, especially the OF. If the Twins could get away with keeping Hicks and Gibson out of this, I would endorse trading almost any combination of players for Reyes. I would imagine that this would mean some combination of Duensing/Perkins, Revere/Tosoni, Slowey/Baker or, if the Mets were willing to wait a few years, Morales/Arcia and Wimmers/Salcedo.
