Benson Signs With Phillies

On Wednesday the Phillies signed Kris Benson to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training. This will certainly add something to the Mets Phillies rivalry.

I’m actually a little upset about this. Benson would have been a good fit to sign a minor league contract with the Mets and challenge for the fifth spot in the rotation, possibly pushing Orlando Hernandez to the bullpen. It’s a shame when third parties, in this case Anna, prevent good signings from happening. The way she burned bridges when Kris was traded made it certain that even under the best circumstances he would never be able to wear a Mets uniform again.
