Mets News – Mets eye Smoltz, Sheets in search for pitching.
With about a month until pitchers and catchers. The mets management is gathering in Port St. Lucie to try and finish off putting the 2010 roster together. Coincidently, the two positions they are looking at is ‘Pitchers and Catchers’. The Mets are keeping a close on on Ben Sheets. Although Sheets did not pitch in all of 2009 due to elbow surgery. He is still eying a big time one year contract. He will most likely end up in Oakland or Texas.
On the other hand, Smoltz is someone the Mets are more likely to sign for that number 2 spot behind Johan in the rotation. At 42 years old, who knows what is impact could be on the mound. He would be a great person to have around in the club house.
