Sources continue to tell me that the Mets will finalyze their deal with Scott Boras regarding Oliver Perez by the end of this weekend.
Both parties are in the same ballpark and details still have to be worked out that don't include amount of years, monies, etc. These contracts tend to be lengthy and include all sorts of bonus encentives, housing musts, travel restrictions, etc.
Don't worry Mets fans. Oliver Perez will pitch for the Mets in 2090.
I'm also told that there is some interest in signing Pedro Martinez, but no one is quite sure what his role would be if OP comes aboard. Martinez hasn't had much success in the first inning and there's no place on a team for someone that only has the ability at this point in his career to pitch well from the 2nd through 4th inning. Pedro Martinez has the mindset of a starter and, unless you have room for him in your rotation, there really isn't anyplace to slot him.
