Just to clarify this isn't a post either for or against Aaron Heilman becoming a starter but part of this debate has been driving me nuts and I needed to address it. Heilman came to the Mets with a full four pitch repertoire, it was the Mets who turned him into a two pitch pitcher.......Between ...

Most Mets fans ( including myself ) don't want to see Aaron Heilman return next year to the Mets and I think if he could be honest (instead of politically correct) Heilman would say he doesn't want to return. I've said all along I believe Heilman will be a good pitcher but I think too much has ...

Haven't we heard this before?
Mets reliever Aaron Heilman apparently called GM Omar Minaya yesterday to discuss a role in the starting rotation. Minaya, though, still sees Heilman as part of the bullpen."We talked and he expressed himself," Minaya said. "He told me that he'd like the opportunity to start. But my job is to make sure I do what's in the best interest of the team...

It's been reported, analyzed and editorialized by every NY newspaper, sports outlet and Mets blog across the web that Aaron Heilman has requested to start or be traded (including me). Like I've said before Heilman in my opinion needs a change of scenery and the Mets need to move Heilman as part ...

Over the past four seasons, Aaron Heilman has gone through more ups and downs than the Dow Jones. After failing to establish himself as a starting pitcher, the Mets moved Heilman to the bullpen during the 2005 season, even though Heilman wanted to be a starter. Since then, Heilman has been a ...

Heilman: "Start Me or Trade Me"
dam Rubin of the Daily News reports that Aaron Heilman wants to start instead of being in the bullpen or get traded to have a opportunity to start somewhere else.According to Rubin, the Mets front office appears split on trading the right hander. The Mets have six teams that are interested in him.I think this is a excuse to get Heilman out of town, he has worn out his stay in New...
Heilman Wants Out If He Can't Start
Mets pitcher Aaron Heilman told the NY Daily News that if the Mets won't let him start, he would like to be traded. Heilman isn't exactly in a position to demand a starting spot, considering he went 3-8 with a 5.21 ERA in 78 games for the Mets. He is thirty years old, and probably needs a change of scenery to really live up to his potential. With that said, the Rockies could...
Minaya stands firm on Heilman in pen..

Omar Minaya made it clear to Heilman that he thinks Heilman should stay in the bullpen. "We talked and he expressed himself," Minaya said. "He told me that he'd like the opportunity to start. But my job is to make sure...

Since Aaron Heilman still wants to start, and the Mets don't, how about swapping could-be #5's with the Cubs? Jason Marquis is a New Yorker, only a year left on his deal. It isn't that the Mets don't need a #5, they actually don't want to "consider" Heilman.Heilman made 25 starts for the Mets ...

Hopefully this is a misdirection ploy or someone who's been misinformed, otherwise this would be a move that the organization would gravely regret. Regardless of whether they owe Billy Wagner 10M. to workout with a physical therapist or they feel Parnell/Kunz aren't that far away. After the last ...
