Hot Stove: Mets ‘serious’ about trading R.A. Dickey 12.03.12 at 3:52 pm ET
By WEEI

Citing sources, ESPN’s Jayson Stark tweeted Monday that the Mets are “serious” about trading 2012 National League Cy Young winner R.A. Dickey and that a deal could happen as soon as this week.

Stark lists the Rangels and the Royals as the most logical fits for the knuckle-baller. Last season, the 38-year-old Dickey led the NL in games started (33) innings pitched (233 2/3) and strikeouts (230). He posted a 20-6 record for the Mets with a 2.73 ERA.

    Rangels?

  • Dwdobbins

    Redsox need him…another version of Tim wakfield!!!

  • Schwank

    I’m sure he feels like a complete turd. But being on the radio you have to have a filter. Wow. Thing will never be the same between him and Vince. Sad actually.

  • ghostoftito

    Have you seen her?

  • wilfork fan#1

    don’t ever show your face in new England again you classless steroid freak

  • The Last Word

    and so ends the media career of one Ted Johnson. hope you enjoyed the ride TJ.

    Concussions have obviously made Ted stupid. Insulting a man’s family like that is not right, smart, or called for. God bless the Wilforks!

  • jburt63

    you are a jerk

  • boring media hype

    Johnson was always an under performer in both mind and body. I’m not surprised by this. All that juice he used over the years rotted out his brain!

  • pct323

    Sad situation. Vince is a class act on and off the field. Taking a cheap shot at his beloved wife is classless.

  • TheGnome

    If Ted Johnson’s previous concussions were the reason for his comments, then he should be taken off the radio. He should be allowed to have a job in sports media, but not where he would insult people.

    Who was it who asked the question?

  • JAY

    Ted didn’t mean it, give him a break, he has a HEAD INJURY !!!!!

    Fans Love big Vice and Mrs. Vince.

  • football wizard

    This negative, demeaning story shouldn’t even be cited on the weei sports site. TJ was being stupid and unfeeling and created a problem with the wilforks where there was none. The Wilforks are class acts and i’m sorry that vince had to even address such a tasteless, untrue characterization of his wife. this story could have ramifications w/ Vince in the future and i hope that it all defuses- meanwhile media, just let it go into the ether.

  • football wizard

    i’d like to see YOU, CHUMP.

  • bigpoppabass

    No apology can make up for this comment. Sounds like Ted is trying to get some negative publicity, sometimes pros who feel unappreciated get like that.

  • Karen

    Ted J. has classic symptoms for traumatic brain injury -frontal lobe. TBI to the frontal lobe impairs judgment / verbal filters. This is a prime example of what happens to a person’s social abilities with repeated brain injuries. Vince -consider the sad source of the comment. Vince and his wife are both role models and are both truly beautiful people who make this world a better place with their tireless efforts for their charities.

  • Big Vinny Fan

    Ted Johnson should go kill himself, hes a pathetic excuse for a man and beats his wife he should go bury a hole in the sand and stick his head in it

  • Melrose

    Hope Ted never works in the media again. What a total db..

  • Koby

    TJ is 100 percent right, she is wicked ugly, so no biggie!

  • http://www.facebook.com/derek.lee.82 Derek Lee

    I have no idea what all the fuss is about her looks. I find her kind of cute. And from what I hear, she’s an amazing person. Johnson has lost it.

    This is the effect of concussions and this is forever…

  • jgv

    I’m a Patriots fan and a Vince Wilfork fan. Ted Johnson’s
    comment about Wilfork’s wife was absolutely disgusting. When
    Johnson was charged with assaulting his wife I tried to chalk it up to drug
    abuse, but it is now clear that the radio host whose favorite 4 letter word is
    sexy has some serious issues with women and I hope they have the good sense to
    take him off the air.

    pat on pat crime I love it…lol

    go away DBAG

    another worthless comment from the waste of air you are koby

  • Chappy

    Like many people on radio/tv, and quite similar to dogs, negative attention is better than no attention…….and it boosts ratings….ask weei about their ratings in the week they announced The Big O’s departure…..everyone goes to a car crash but no one shows up at the hospital.

  • football wizard

    you are sooo right.The damage is already done and can NEVER be made up. It’s not like someone callin’ me or you ugly, it’s a woman and especially an ex associate player’s wife!!! What can the insensitive doofus say now; Bianca, i didn’t mean to call you ugly….C’mon. the only assurance i have is that the wilforks are such good folks they’ll get over this. though i don’t speak for Vince, i would guarantee any association with Teddy is over, irreparably damaged. vince is a proud guy.

  • Jeff Souza

    I had and stressed had a lot of respect for Ted Johnson. When you insult some ones wife as he did is unforgivable! Miss.Wilfork is a beautiful women who goes out of her way in the community and for the Patriots. Some say she grabbed the torch that was left by the late Myria Craft had started to make the Patriots the way they are today. Family atmosphere were everyone down the line that is employed by the Patriots feels like they apart of a family. If that is ugly. Mr. Johnson stay in Texas because that does not fly in New England!

    A lot of you want to attribute this to brain injuries… How about attributing some of it to him just being a jerk? The man abused his body with steroids and made that choice. He abused his wife and by many accounts was far from the perfect team mate. “No filter because of a brain injury”? I aint buyin.

    omg this guy who looks like an umpaloompa is calling other people ugly?? really?? He needs to look in the mirror and be silent.

  • fred1717

    That tool wont know a good women if one slapped his big head off. The new england fans know how beautiful bianca is. She’d at every game cheering vince on. She may not be johnson’s view of hottest, but I bet she’s at the tops for kind of wife a real man would want. We got your back vince

  • Dano S

    No he is able to have a talk show and that was nothing but “mean”.

    “Let me apologize to my fans in advance of whatever I may say today…”–Vince Wilfork

    That’s class. Johnson is a fool to say what he said, a complete fool.

  • Emmanuel

    Johnson should kill himself. There’s no apology good enough, no excuse possible.

  • Iheartmrswilfork

    What came first: Johnson’s stupidity or Johnson’s concussion induced stupidity?

  • Better Than Yu

    She’s a beast

  • Breyer Than Yu

    Lima, sounds like you might be breathing air from the wrong side of the Rio Grande. Have a great weekend!!

  • B.B.

    A true man keeps comments like that to themselves and values people not by looks, but by personality and personal achievments.
