Mets Interested in Freddy Garcia; Ask for Medical Records

An article by Brandon Butler

According to SI.com’s Jon Heyman, the Mets are interested in Freddy Garcia, and have asked for his medical records.

The Mets signed Garcia in 2009 on a minor league deal, but was not selected to the opening day roster and was released.

I managed to take a look at Freddy Garcia’s stats, which actually were a surprise to me. Garcia went 12-6 with the White Sox, but had a mediocre ERA at 4.64.

As far as signing Freddy Garcia goes, he did show that he can pitch a full-season without any injury setbacks or recurrences whatsoever.

It’s going to be a matter of whether or not the Mets can afford him, or if they really like Jeff Francis or Chris Young better.
