The Mets have a new aging slugger to weigh down their team

...and his name is Gary Sheffield

Those of yoy that forget, Gary was on the Yanks for a few seasons. Gary did well for us, and after his brief stint in NY, he went to the Tigers, and the Tigers just released him.

Oh, yeah, and he had 499 HOME RUNS! So he needed one more, and the Tigers threw him out the window!

Fortunately, he's in better hands, but I don't know how he'll do for the Mets.

In other news, Jayson Werth is the Phillies 3rd outfielder, as Geoff Jenkins has been released.

Also, I don't know if you heard, but my friend 19dan19 may be including me in a new blog.
