Would Mets Consider Marquis?
On November 29th, ESPN's Jerry Crasnick mentioned that the Cubs are "listening on Jason Marquis." This would clearly be a salary dump, as Marquis will earn $16.25MM over 2008-09.

Since then we haven't heard of any teams interested in the 29 year-old righty. However, Mets manager Willie Randolph brought up Marquis yesterday as a consideration for the team's rotation. The article's author, Adam Rubin, added that the Cubs are fans of Endy Chavez. It wouldn't be fair to equate the two players, however.

I say keep him in the rotation for the first part of the year and try to dump him during the all star break. He had a 3.67 era before the break last year with a 2.35 April and 3.38 May.

Those were my exact thoughts as well.
