Since then they have signed Miguel Batista and Fernando Cabrera to minor league deals with invites to spring training. I thought placing Daniel Herrera on waivers and risking losing him to claim showed that the Mets weren't truly committed to him as anything...

The Mets have announced a series of moves that will guarantee their position playing October baseball next season. Let’s start from the top.

Alex Gordon continued his spring surge with a two-run homer Tuesday that backed a series of strong pitching performances and carried the Royals to a 4-3 victory over an Oakland split squad at Surprise Stadium. Gordon's homer, which snapped a 2-2 tie, was a no-doubt drive to right field against Fernando Cabrera in the seventh inning. Gordon also had a single in three at-bats while...
