Minor League Free Agents

Betemit's worth a look for first, as are Burress, Humber and Banks for the bullpen or SP depth.

Plaxico Burress?

Somehow, a chain of events unfolded that put Steve Phillips in a professional broadcast booth Sunday night so he could rip Carlos Beltran. Try to explain that in any other terms.

He's got a gun.

well I was planning on writing something about minor league FAs for tomorrow

Not sure I want any of those three pitchers, though. Maybe Burress…

Burress is worth it

Career ERA: 6.08

Career FIP: 4.98

Career tRA: 6.00

81 Appearances, 41 starts

Sounds like a good 6th starter on a minor league contract

Notice the Mets "reinstated from the DL" list

even the minor leaguers get injured an insane amount

I was flipping through some of my parents' photo albums this afternoon in search of one particular shot of the sign my older sister made for Mets Banner Day back in the late eighties. Though I didn't find that one — I'll post it when I eventually track it down, and I can assure you that it's Keith-themed — but I did stumble upon this wonderful photo of my younger sister's stuffed animal menagerie spread out in front of a glorious rainbow-festooned Mets pennant, also from the late eighties.

She works for the HRC now and was particularly delighted to be reminded of this photo.

Now that banner day is back, hopefully this years will look a little like this. I know it's not great, but i don't pretend to be a professional. embiggen!

In order to raise extra capital, the Mets have explored signing Kosuke Fukudome to a minor league contract with an invitation to Spring Training (replete with curiously high uniform number).
