On Hearing of Contract Offer to Bengie Molina

We welcome Molina, a catcher and more
So much veteran presence, he just fits through a door
For Thole he'll be a two-year apprentice
And walk just as much as I visit the dentist
There are those who worry he's seldom on base
But once there, fear not, he'll stay right in place
Now questions about his conditioning abound
The man is in shape, but that shape is round
His knees may be failing, his arm may be tired
And if he should fail, Minaya's sure to be fired
But his 15 home runs should cure all the Mets' ills
Despite his clear absence of all other skills
As new products go, Bengie looks like New Coke
But the deal's welcome news for the folks at Blue Smoke
