Colon turned down higher offers to re-sign with the Mets. “I’ve had a great experience in New York,” Colon, said on Friday. “The fans are great, being part of the postseason was great. I’ll do anything Terry wants me to do this year, start or relieve. I just want to help us get back to the World Series.”
