According to the Chicago Sun-Times Octavio Dotel doesn't have a future with the White Sox's and the relievers first choice this off-season is the Mets.The Mets will need a set-up man and Dotel makes a lot of sense. The 37 y/o veteran right hander has a lifetime ERA of 3.73 in over 700 innings, with 83 saves in 122 opportunities. Dotel started his career with the Mets in 1999 before being traded. Octavio Dotel said he approached the club about his immediate future and a contract extension last month and was told he wasn't in the plans. The reliever at least appreciated the Sox being upfront with him. As he turns his attention to free agency, New York is atop his wish list. The Mets are his first choice and the Yankees second. source Chicago Sun-Times
