According to ESPN.com, citing the player’s agent, free-agent C Yorvit Torreabla will agree to a three-year contract with the Mets.

Torrealba’s agent told ESPN Radio in New York that he expects to formalize the agreement with the Mets this afternoon. He declined to reveal how much the contract would pay over the term.

…i am not sure what to make of this torrealba and castro combination…will it be a so-called platoon…and if so, why didn’t the Mets just bring back Paul Lo Duca and give castro more playing time next year…hopefully we will hear from Omar Minaya soon…

The Denver Post writes that the Rockies will now turn their attention to ‘other veteran catchers,’ including Paul Lo Duca.
