2 Guys the Mets Should Go After

       Over the past few weeks, baseball has seen some trade rumors around the Diamondbacks' Justin Upton (who has been in rumors for quite a while now) and the Marlins' Giancarlo Stanton. The main reason Stanton has been in talks due to his disliking of owner Jeffery Loria decision on the franchise's future. Upton has been mentioned with a few teams, including the Mets at the All Star break last year, most recently in a possible 3-way trade between Arizona, Texas, and Tampa Bay. Although the Diamondbacks have come out and said that he will probably be there Opening Day, Upton will probably be traded by the 2013 July 31 Trade Deadline. As for Stanton, teams such as the Mariners, Rangers, and Yankees have expressed interest, as he will probably be changing uniforms by Spring Training.
       One team that hasn't said anything to either of these teams are the New York Mets. However, I think they should be knee deep in both of these guys. I know that they don't have too much money right now, but after next season, they don't have to pay Jason Bay or Johan Santana anymore. So, after next year, New York is going to have some money to spend.
       Both of these guys are power-hitting outfielders, which is exactly what the Metropolitans need right now. Of course, with any trade, the question arises, "Who do you give up?" Well, the Mets have a ton of middle infielders right now: Ruben Tejada, Daniel Murphy, Jordanny Valdespin, and some talented Minor League prospects.
       Additionally, Giancarlo/Mike Stanton has been a Met killer since coming up to the Majors, so if they trade for him, they wouldn't have to worry about him anymore.
