I thought Milledge had the potential to be very good. Not a HOFer or anything, but a guy who could provide a steady bat in the lineup and a decent glove. Maybe a few All Star appearances here and there. I realized he had "attitude issues" that would have been blown out of proportion in NY, but I figured he'd get through it.

I was devastated when they traded him to the Nats for Ryan Church and Brian Schneider. I thought it was way too early to give up on him, especially since they sent him to a division rival only got marginal pieces in return. It's obvious Willie Randolph didn't like him. I envisioned him killing the Mets for years, but fortunately the trade was a flop for the Nats too.
