Mets sign
Shintaro Fujinami. Because relievers with ERAs of
7.18 are just what this team needs!
Perhaps he had trouble adjusting, and Stearns thinks Senga can help him out. Heck, perhaps Senga is his boyfriend. But going on stats rather than speculation, this is a move that makes signing Lopez and Ottavino Redux look comparatively smart, IMO
BTW, it turned out to be Austin Adams (rather than Reid-Foley) who took the bullet so the Mets could get Diekman on the 40-man. (Adams is still invited to Spring Training, however.) No word on who takes one for Fujinami.
(No,
Westheim, you are not allowed to nominate Ottavino. Sorry.)
