Relief Pitcher: K-Rod, then Fuentes, then Wood

by Matthew Cerrone on December 7th, 2008 at 12:38 pm

According to Jon Heyman at SI.com, the Mets prefer Francisco Rodriguez, followed by Brian Fuentes, then Kerry Wood, then, if all else fails, a Trevor Hoffman-Huston Street combination.

from what i understand, they prefer a K-Rod-Street combination, and feel confident it can happen, though that, of course, depends on Colorado’s asking price

“The goal would be to keep Rodriguez to a three-year deal, with a fourth-year option,” says Heyman.

That said, “The Mets are confident they’ll wind up with either Rodriguez or Fuentes,” writes Ken Davidoff in Newsday.

In a post to ESPN.com, Buster Olney continues to report the Mets will begin doling out offers to closer this week, ‘according to their terms, and not the terms of the agents.’

jeez, i’m getting antsy…make the offer, guys…do it, just do it…
