Elmer belongs in Venezuela as a setup man. I hope Joe is right and this is a minor league deal. Signing someone like this so early in the hot stove has frightening implications for met fans.

He could replace Sean Green as a 7th-inning bridge to 8th-inning setup. He locates his pitches down in the strike zone, changes speeds well keeping hitters off-balance. He has the unique ability to discern a hitter's weakness from the mound. Dessens is not to be underestimated. As with most older pitchers, he'll need adequate rest between appearances to keep his arm healthy. __________________________ I do not understand the organization's handling of Adam Bostick. Why wasn't he given an opportunity to throw some pitches at the ML level in September? His numbers are improving steadily since we acquired him. Dessens is a quality pitcher with polished skills.

Hopefully this is nothing more than a spring training invite on a minor league deal. By the way, wasn't Adam Bostick a better choice to bring back? He had a heck of a season in AAA. Happy Thanksgiving Phil! When I read this title I had to catch my breath. Hopefully this is nothing more than a spring training invite on a minor league deal.
