I'm not really interested in what the Mets have to offer, but the Dodgers have at least 5 players that would slide in quite nicely for the M's and should be gettable given the team's financial woes. I'd start asking about:
Casey Blake - like a right-handed Adam Kennedy with a better bat and left field experience; owed the remainder of about $5 mil with an affordable 2012 option; has injury troubles, but with a job-share at third and left would could really help.
Hiroki Kuroda - Owed the remainder of $12 mil this year, no long term obligation, would fit right in as you draw down Pineda's innings.
Jonathan Broxton - Owed the remainder of a $7 mil contract, but could be the closer we need; was wild in his rehab start, but has gained his velocity back; his recent struggles make trading him sellable to the LA fanbase.
Matt Kemp/Andre Ethier - Have been lobbied for and are probably pipe dreams, but if McCourt really wants to stick it to MLB by making the Dodgers unpurchasable (as it has been suggested he wants to), he could trade their stars as fiscally responsible, cost-cutting measure.
Would think they are roughly gettable in that order too. With the exceptions of Kemp/Ethier, neither are franchise players for their teams like Wright and Reyes are for the Mets.
