In case you missed it, LHP Dave Williams has signed a one-year, $1.25 million contract to stay with the Mets. Williams, a Caesar Rodney High product, is preparing to compete for the final spot in the Mets' starting rotation but says he's willing to be a long reliever, too.“I’ve been a starter most of my career,” Williams told the New York Daily News. “The caliber of this team, you just have to try to contribute some way. If it’s in the bullpen, that’s fine.”
Williams, 27, went 5-4 with a 6.52 ERA last season between the Reds and Mets. The Mets acquired him for a minor leaguer on May 25. At the moment, the Mets' opening-day rotation looks like this:
1. Tom Glavine
2. Orlando Hernandez
3. John Maine
4. Oliver Perez
5. Dave Williams, Mike Pelfrey, Alay Soler.
Think they need Barry Zito in New York, or what?
