According to Buster Olney at ESPN.com, the
Mets, Red Sox, Braves, Yankees, White Sox, Rangers and Mariners, are among teams who will likely show up when free-agent RHP Freddy Garcia is able to audition.
…from what i can gather, the Mets will certainly be interested in garcia, who should be ready to pitch in the major leagues around the All-Star Break…he is already throwing from a mound and looking strong, though he still has a lot of work to do before such an audition can occur…








Methinks the Yanks will outbid us if he looks anywhere near good.
I was thinking the same thing. whether or not the Red Sox can expect Schilling to come back will also be a factor. A lot can happen between now and then too where teams will feel they can compete by adding a player like Garcia.
So is this so-called “El Duque” guy even on the team anymore? Or is just guaranteed that he, Pedro or both will never be part of the rotation at the same time?
I miss the leg kick…
Sad part is - we just need ONE of them at any given time. Pelf can handle the 5 slot.
I remember back to the end of Hot Stove, when all it would have taken was a modest amount of money (and a short contract) to land Lohse, and REALLY modest amount of money (and no real contract) to take a flyer on Garcia….
Was it really SO unforeseeable that Pedro and Duque would be out at the same time….maybe not from the start of the season, but come on….these guys are held together with duct tape, bunion plaster, grit and gumption. I think Pedro also uses wile, but I’m not sure…
We should already have Garcia locked up…
Hindsight is 20/20 my man.
It’s 1:05 on all the official websites (MLB, Mets and Yanks)
