JON RAUCH RUMORS & GOSSIP
DJ DFA'd, Carson Promoted: Mets Matinee Lineup V. Reds - May 17, 2012
After last night's brutal Mets loss where Jon Rauch allowed an apparent win by Johan Santana slip away, the Mets designated DJ Carrasco for assignment.
Santana pitched a good game, leaving with 2 outs in the seventh and a 3-2 lead.
Bobby Parnell threw a five pitch strikeout to end the inning. Then all Hell broke loose; Rauch came in and allowed 3 runs in one third of an inning. Carrasco

If Francisco Is Removed As Closer, Parnell and Rauch Could Be Likely Candidates
After the Mets lost another frustrating game against the Marlins today, Terry Collins spoke about the possibility of removing Frank Francisco from the closer role.
“We’ll address it. I have eight options. But, I’m not going to address that right now, when emotions are running high.”
Before I get into the whole Frank Francisco situation, I am impressed with how Terry Collins...

Jon Rauch: NL East Killer
Jon Rauch has been outstanding for the Mets in the bullpen this year. After getting credit for his team-leading third victory in the Mets’ 2-1 victory over the Miami Marlins last night, Rauch has now pitched 9⅓ scoreless innings in ten appearances. But the zero in the runs allowed column is just the beginning of the story.
Rauch has faced a total of 32 batters over his...

Jon Rauch leans on slider for his early success
Throughout the offseason I complained often about the Jon Rauch signing, suggesting that the $3.5 million the Mets spent on the reliever could have been better used elsewhere. However, like many of his teammates, Rauch is off to a good start in 2012. After pitching a scoreless inning in Saturday’s win over the Phillies, he’s appeared in five of the team’s eight games and...

Rauch setting Mets up for Success
Most people scoffed at the free agent acquisitions made by the New York Mets this offseason. The team brought in Jon Rauch and Frank Francisco from Toronto in an effort to bolster a bullpen that was inconsistent and unreliable throughout the 2011 season. So while the Marlins loaded up on big name free agents like Jose Reyes, Heath Bell, and Mark Buehrle and the Phillies brought...

A second look at Jon Rauch
Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy with most of the moves that Sandy Alderson and Co. have made this off-season. Not spending a ton of money (which the team didn’t even have) on a player like Jose Reyes was a hard decision, but it was the right move. Personally, I loved the Angel Pagan for Andres Torres and Ramon Ramirez trade and if I were the Mets I probably...

Video: Jon Rauch Ejection
The best first and probably least significant move of the night was the signing of former Toronto Blue Jay, Jon Rauch. Listed at 6'10", Rauch is an imposing figure who has pitched to a 3.82 ERA over nine seasons in the big leagues.Known as much for his tattoos as his pitching prowless, Rauch had a down year in 2011 after being fairly consistent over a previous period of...

New York Mets Believe Jon Rauch Will Make a Great Reliever, Hand Him $3.5 Million
When there are players demanding upwards of $200 million for a decade of service, it's hard to take tiny deals like the one the New York Mets just made with Jon Rauch seriously. In fact, it's hard to take the Mets seriously at all.
In a move meant to "bolster" their bullpen Tuesday evening, the team signed Rauch to a $3.5 million, one-year deal. This is the Mets...
