Mets re-signed RHP Guillermo Mota to a two-year, $5 million contract.

And they say cheaters never win. Giving a guaranteed two-year deal to a pitcher whose only really good run in the last two years came before he was caught taking PEDs seems like a substantial risk. Still, the Mets can afford it. Mota will rejoin the pen at the end of May after serving his 50-game suspension at the beginning of 2007.

Eh, I am okay with this re-signing. With the market the way it is, this is certainly a cheap deal.

Agreed, seems like any signing that is not 5/50 makes sense these days. Mota's personal legacy (if I such a big word can be used in his case) may have taken a hit but for the Mets it's strictly business... cheap business!

Hopefully he comes back strong after his 50-game suspension..
