Mets & Rockies To Make Another Trade?

According to a report by Ken Rosenthal at Foxsports.com the Mets are in discussions with the Colorado Rockies to acquire backup catcher Danny Ardoin and infielder Luis Gonzalez.

I guess the thought process on Ardoin is that with Ramon Castro on the shelf and Mike DiFelice being mostly useless what has Omar Minaya have to lose by acquiring someone, anyone who can catch. Ardoin is known as a good fielder but lousy hitter.

The motivation for acquiring Gonzalez is more sound. Omar wants to have an experienced infielder around as insurance for Jose Valentin. Makes sense to me.
