There was talk about Aaron Heilman for Marquis as recently as yesterday, but it's believed the Mets turned down that deal weeks ago. Scott Schoeneweis for Marquis would make a lot more sense. Both are entering their contract years. Schoeneweis is owed $3.6 million, while Marquis is due $9.875 million.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Schoeneweis' K's aren't good, but he had a 3.34 ERA last year and holds lefties to a .224 BAA for his career, including .178 last year. Sign me up.

Definitely do that. I don't know why the Mets would though. I guess now that they have K-Rod and Putz, Schoenwis is expendable.
