Buzz: Mets are Considering Livan Hernandez

there is more and more buzz coming from Nashville suggesting that the Mets are seriously considering Livan Hernandez

Earlier today, citing ‘a source,’ MLB.com reported that the Nationals may be willing to give Hernandez a two-year deal.

…if you recall, multiple reports over the last week had suggested the Mets were debating whether to sign hernandez…in fact, ESPN.com made another reference to this today…i dig hernandez, but not at more than two years…no way, no how

Hernandez, Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux are the only major-league pitchers to make 30 or more starts in each of the past 10 seasons.  However, Hernandez’s total innings-pitched has dropped during each of the last four years.

…as i have mentioned before, the buzz in baseball, for a while now, has been that livan and his brother, Orlando Hernandez, would like to be on the same team, hoping to reunite before one or both of them retires…

For what it’s worth, Orlando is a free agent after next season.
