eMailbag: Pagan’s Options
Jason B sent in the following question…
“Do you know if Angel Pagan has any options left – or was his acquisition to keep Endy Chavez hungry and working hard
to win his reserve outfield spot?”
…yes, pagan has options left, and so he can essentially be promoted and sent down from the minor leagues at any time…
…by the way, i seriously doubt that endy needs additional motivation…
…the pagan acquisition led to a variety of interesting theories…i heard people wonder if it means endy could get traded…or, that it must suggest a deal for santana will clobber the team’s outfield depth, i.e., Carlos Gomez or maybe even Ryan Church…who knows…it’s an interesting thought, considering the following:
During a recent chat with the Boston Globe, ESPN.com’s Peter Gammons said that the Mets are currently trying to build up inventory to trade for Johan Santana, adding that Twins GM Bill Smith may be ‘waiting to see if any offer gets better.’
