Relief Pitcher: Mets like Meeting with Closers

by Matthew Cerrone on December 8th, 2008 at 5:43 pm

The Mets met today with the Beverly Hills Sports Council, who represent free agent closers Brian Fuentes and Trevor Hoffman.

From what I can gather, Kerry Wood’s agent will be in Las Vegas later tonight, at which point he too will schedule a meeting with the Mets.

According to the New York Post, FoxSports.com and SI.com, the Mets offered Francisco Rodriguez a three-year deal today.

Last week, on ESPN.com, Buster Olney said the Mets might decide to make appropriate offers to each closer, ‘and the first one to jump at their proposal will be signed.’
