Fans buyout of Oliver Perez?

Silly fun on a rainy night which is sure to get the attention of bored fat bloggers like me:

Check out The Point.

THE PITCH
The Mets new general manager will inherit the responsibility of ridding the team of Oliver Perez.

In 2009 Perez signed a 3 year 36 million dollar deal. Since that signing, Oliver Perez has been a disaster. He posted a 3-4 record last year with a 6.82 ERA. This year he has somehow managed to do worse going 0-3 with an ERA again over 6. If that wasn’t enough, Ollie refused assignment to Triple-A and angered his teammates and manager.

It seems from this past season the Mets ownership is more willing to play w/ a 24 man roster than to pay to get rid of Oliver Perez.

If you are as big a Mets fan as I am and would like nothing more than to forget the past 4 seasons and move forward then help be part of the solution. Help rid the Mets of Oliver Perez by 02/13/2011 (day pitchers and catchers report).

If we reach the “tipping point” and the Mets do not accept our generous donation all proceeds will be donated to charity.
