#Orioles talks with #Mets regarding Ike Davis are seemingly back "on" #Orioles previously balked when #Mets asked for Eduardo Rodriguez.

#Mets are looking for pitching from the #orioles who are reluctant to give up much. They will not give up Gausman, Bundy, or RodriguezThere is two things to note here. The Mets are still actively trying to trade Ike Davis and they're still reaching for the stars in terms of what they want in exchange for bounce back candidate.

Its important for fans to remain patient. There is little to indicate that the fact that Ike Davis remains on the roster is preventing the Mets from making any other moves. Its also important to realize that there is absolutely no harm in Alderson asking for the moon. If you don't ask, you won't get it. There are still two potential suitors in Baltimore and Milwaukee, so it makes perfect sense for Alderson to maximize Davis' value.
I don't worry about what roster Ike Davis is on on January 2nd. I only worry if he is still on the Met roster come opening day.
