Gotay to the Mets?

According to an article in the Star today, the Royals are close to trading Ruben Gotay to the Mets for Jeff Keppinger. I have no idea why the Mets would want such a free swinger at second base, but I’m glad they are interested. Keppinger would be a much better fit in our organization. He’s currently hitting .297 in Triple-A (Norfolk) and he has .349 OBP. He doesn’t have much power (2 HR, 25 RBI in 87 games), but he knows how to get on base and set the table.
