SCOTT KAZMIR RUMORS & GOSSIP
Jim Duquette to Donate Kidney to His Daughter
I was roaming Sports Spyder, which is my new vice thanks to a tip from Vinny Cartiglia over at MetsZilla, and I came across this story about former Mets’ General Manager Jim Duquette, who will be undergoing surgery on June 4 in an effort to donate a kidney to his 8-year-old daughter.
From ESPN NY:
Lindsey, now 8, has been dealing with a rare kidney disease known as FSGS since...

UPDATE: New York Mets Unimpressed With Scott Kazmir’s Bullpen Session
So I just got done writing about the New York Mets checking out Scott Kazmir and musing over a potential reunion.  Did I just waste half an hour of my time?  Perhaps.  It turns out that the New York Mets were not impressed with what they saw from Scott Kazmir.  I guess that kind of puts a pin in the whole “reunion” talk, huh?  It is disappointing – not because...

Yankees not interested in Scott Kazmir
As shown by the David Aardsma signing, the Yankees look into every possibility when it comes to finding a pitcher, but in the case of Scott Kazmir they aren’t interested, according to Joel Sherman of the NY Post.
Kazmir, now 28, used to be a big time prospect with a fastball in the upper-90′s. However, these days injuries have sapped him of all that electric stuff and...

No Kazmir Reunion Expected with Mets
Looks like Scott Kazmir won’t be reuniting with the Mets.
He had his tryout and unfortunately he was not able to hit over 88 MPH with his fastball. Some scouts seem to have him at 91 but all the guns are different so who knows. Scott Kazmir did have other pitches so maybe he learned to use them effectively but you never know until he gets the chance to prove it.

New York Mets Not Reuniting With Scott Kazmir Anytime Soon
Many of us remember the moment all too well. Â The moment during the summer of 2004 – off the top of my head, I want to say it was July 30th – when the New York Mets traded stud left-handed starting pitching prospect Scott Kazmir for RHP Victor Zambrano – a.k.a. rubbish. Â Even though I was well aware of Scott Kazmir’s potential at this point, my attachment...

Mets sending scouts to see former prospect Scott Kazmir
Scott Kazmir has not been getting a lot of attention from teams as he attempts to make a comeback, and understandably so.
He hasn’t pitched in the majors since April 3 of last season, when he lasted just 1 2/3 innings and gave up five runs for the Angels.
Before that, he had fallen off badly after the Tampa Bay Rays traded him to Los Angeles in 2009. He’s getting a...

Scott Kazmir has lost his velocity
Figured I’d pass this information along since there are always commentor or two asking about him…
Scott Kazmir is still out there and wants to pitch, but the guy who was known for having a live fastball is stuck in the 84-85 mph range, according to Jayson Stark of ESPN.
Typically it’s not a bad idea to sign anybody on a non-guaranteed contract, but in this case...

Kazmir to pitch in DR
Looks like Scott Kazmir is going to the DR to pitch, to show he's healthy and can bounce back from his recent struggles. Kazmir in recent years has struggled with injuries spending substantial time on the disable list. After the infamous trade to the Rays in 2004, Kaz made 145 starts with a 3.92 ERA, much like Brett Saberhagen his health in Tampa an every other year thing....
