Glavine Gone
Word this morning is that Tom Glavine has left the Mets to return to the Atlanta Braves. The deal is for 1 year at $8 million. The nostalgic move to the team with which he made his name is a possible sign that this will be the last contract he signs in his playing career.
Glavine’s move leaves the Mets with another hole in the starting rotation. You can expect this to heat up rumors about Livan Hernandez and Johan Santana. I don’t think it the loss of Glavine actually increases the likelihood of the Mets acquiring either of these two pitchers as much as it guarantees the team has no choice but to do something (anything) with the rotation. There could be some desperation in the air at Shea as far as the rotation goes.
