Mets re-signed RHP Guillermo Mota to a two-year, $5 million contract.
And they say cheaters never win. Giving a guaranteed two-year deal to a pitcher whose only really good run in the last two years came before he was caught taking PEDs seems like a substantial risk. Still, the Mets can afford it. Mota will rejoin the pen at the end of May after serving his 50-game suspension at the beginning of 2007.
Too bad his velocity won't be as high since he is off the drugs.
