Mike Pelfrey and the Mets settle on a one year deal avoiding for arbitration, $5.675 M got the Mets 33 starts averaging 5.84 innings per start for 193 innings with an ERA of 4.74, WHIP 1.47 and a 7-13 record.

I did not include the big contracts like C.C., C.J. and Buehrle. I separated the the lefties from the righties as they usually have more value but only Saunders was paid more. Saunders was clearly the better pitcher last year and only three years older, from the other lefties none were more durable but Bedard, Chen and Maholm in shorter stints produced more and received less. Cappy's deal looks bad next to Pelf both in performance and years.Amongst the righties Dempster's deal looks really bad since there numbers were essential the same but cost the Cubs 8M more. Harang's deal looks solid getti...
