New York Mets Option Pitcher Josh Edgin
The New York Mets optioned struggling left handed pitcher Josh Edgin to Double-A Binghamton on Saturday. Don’t fret Mets fans, unlike what is being reported by some sites, the truth is that the reason they chose Double-A over Triple-A to get his confidence back is because it is closer to their major league club and this allows for a more hands-on approach to getting his confidence...

The Mets announced this morning that to make room for Shaun Marcum on the Major League roster, Josh Edgin was demoted...not to Las Vegas to join the 51's, but to Binghamton (AA). The clubs thinking was to drop him 2 levels so that he can get the much needed work to correct his problems.

Mets News: Josh Edgin sent down to Binghamton to clear spot for Marcum
Mets News:
The Mets have sent Josh Edgin to Double-A Binghamton to clear a roster spot for Shaun Marcum.
Edgin, 26, was a lock for the bullpen out of spring training, leaving Scott Rice and Robert Carson to battle it out for the role as the second left-hander. But he has struggled this season. Despite a 1-2-3 ninth inning Friday night against the bottom of Philadelphia's lineup...

Is Terry Collins The Reason Why Josh Edgin Lost His Edge?
Updated on 4/26
I got an interesting email from Kevin (K Maxx) this morning who asked, “if Terry Collins is so concerned about Josh Edging being overworked, why does he keep overworking him?”
I did a quick check and was shocked to see that Edgin made 75 appearances last season between the Mets and the minors. That would have placed him tenth in the NL.

What’s Happened To Josh Edgin?
What happened to the Josh Edgin who came up and immediately became one of the more reliable and dominant relievers out of our bullpen last year?

Josh Edgin: Why he could be the Mets closer
As the season draws closer to beginning, the Mets have a major question of injuries. Among them,, is Frank Francisco.

That may project him being placed on the DL for the beginning of the season.
Manager Terry Collins has...
Will Josh Edgin be a lefty reliever, rather than a LOOGY?
If you asked most people what they disliked most about modern bullpen usage, the most common answer would be managing the game with the idea of maximizing saves for one pitcher. There is no doubt that is a sub-optimal way to do things. But to me there is something even more revolting and that is the idea that it is okay to carry pitchers who regularly have outings where they face...
