Graves Situation
Sporting Goods
The Mets have signed Danny Graves. Considering he will make the pro-rated minimum, and then will require a buy-out next year (unless the Mets decide he's somehow worth $5m), it will cost them about $600,000 for his services for the rest of the year.Considering the Mets bullpen, and their refusal to utilize good young arms, I say it's a good investment. Teams have invested $600 g's on much bigger risks.

I can't see how this could be bad. Worst case, he stinks and we use him to mop up. Best case, he's a 7th or 8th inning guy along with Heilman and Hernandez. (Actually, that sounds like a pretty good bunch of guys. Too bad Looper makes me so nervous.)
Unless the Mets keep Aybar and get rid of Heilman. At which point this is a fiasco. Hopefully this means the end of Aybar. Graves certainly can't be worse than he is.
