The Mets just traded Cedeno for Chris Widger and Wilson Delgado. I am not sure, but I would be willing to bet the Mets will pick up a substantial amount of Cedeno's salary.

Do you have a link for that?
"One of the teams represents truth, justice, the American way, and underdogs everywhere. The other represents George Steinbrenner!" - U.S. News and World Reports columnist John Leo on the difference between the Mets and the Yankees.
Including "nice pick up" and Cemento in the same sentence is indicative of a lack of baseball knowledge. LMAO.
Maine has a good swing for a pitcher but on anything that moves, he has no chance. And if it's a fastball, it has to be up in the zone. Basically, the pitcher has to hit his bat. - Mike Pelfrey

Cedeno is nothing special. But the Cardials gave up NOTHING and aren't paying hardly any of his salary.
So it's risk free for the Cardinals -- and very hard to argue that they got snookered. What do the Mets needs another catcher for -- by the way with Phillips, Piazza, and Vance (isn't he on the Mets)?

Adding this to the pile of HORRIBLE Apri Fool's Day jokes. I actually got some work done that day, turning away from my forums due to all the bad humor
It doesn't matter that he's a catcher, the Mets weren't looking to get anything for him. They gladly would have accepted a couple of dead bodies and $50 bucks.
