Mike Piazza to Angels? Good riddance.

Hey kids...
There is a surprisingly large amount of teams interested in trading with the Mets for Mike Piazza. Well, only two.
Last week the Dodgers expressed interest, and now the Angels want him as full time DH and part time catcher/first baseman.

I say a lot because two teams is two more teams than I thought would have interest in "Pizza."
The Dodgers were willing to part with Shawn "who needs him" Green, but reportedly the Angels are offering Jose Guillen and Jarrod Washburn or Ramon Ortiz.
The Mets should jump all over this opportunity.
If there is somebody actually willing to trade for a washed-up, broken down catcher, do it.
Put a gun to the Pizza-man's head and force him to waive that stupid no-trade clause.
Let him lose somewhere else while the Mets rebuild with a new GM and a new attitude.
