I'm guessing $10 million for one year would certainly get him signed, right? $8 million? So, the only reasons the Mets wouldn't do that are: 1. They disagree with my own valuation by a wide margin 2. Wilpon is cheap And yeah, how nasty would this look for an NL team with the core four the Mets have on offense, and the bolstered bullpen? Joe-Han Sheets Perez Maine Pelfrey ... Garcia Redding Niese Damn, that'd be really sweet. I think 20 GS of Ben Sheets is worth ~$12 million.

Everyone talks like we have the nationals onn the field We have a quality top of the line-up and I guess pitching wins...but I would feel better with 1 more bat.

If he stays healty, Santana-Sheets would be a pretty intimidating 1-2 to open a playoff series. I think it’s worth the risk considering the potential there.

I have no problem with Garcia and Redding as our #5 starters. With FOUR young starters in our rotation alrady, Niese is expandable.
