Time to think about trading Wright and Reyes too

Sorry about the lack of posts. So here we are, with only 9 days left to trade Beltran is he the only player they trade? Personally I think it's been time to start over from the bottom to top. Start with Beltran, slowly start taking offers for Wright, and finally finish it off and deal Reyes. This is not easy for me to say, in fact I would like the Mets to keep Reyes, but with the way the team is constructed they will not win with just Reyes. The NL East is too deep in pitching and talent for the Mets to compete. I think the Mets could get top tier prospects by throwing Reyes on the block after they trade Beltran. Then after you trade Reyes for top level Prospects you trade Wright too.

Unfortunately the window closed on this team three years ago. To move forward we must take steps back. Citifield is going to be a ghost town anyway come August. Why not maximize the talent we get back, and throw a bunch of kids with high upside. Because this team will not win a championship.
