Kat O’Brien of Newsday talked with Mets GM Omar Minaya and reports that, while he is in talks with Scott Boras, who represents Derek Lowe and Scott Boras, nothing is imminent.

On Wednesday, the Boston Globe said the Mets appeared to be closing in on deal for Lowe, worth either three– or four-years and for worth roughly $14-16 million per season.

…well, these days, imminent and closing in are rather subjective in baseballfrom what i can tell, neither of the above reports are false…i bet things pick up next week, prior to new years…i hope

Speaking of pitchers…

Relief pitcher Joe Nelson signed a one-year, $1.3 million deal with the Rays, according to the Miami Herald.
