Edgardo Alfonzo tearing it up in the winter league.


Nice to see Fonzi going crazy with his hitting like he did for the Mets. Alfonzo, who is 35, has playing winter ball and has 42 rbis in 60 games. There is some talk around the teams that there might be some interest in bringing him in with a minor league deal for 2009.

Edgardo, who last played for in the majors in 2006 has been spending the last couple of years playing for our local Long Island Ducks of the Independent league. He has been hitting .322 . We wish him the best.

There is still some chat about Pedro Martinez and Ben Sheets in the Mets camp. Read the latest from Ken Rosenthal

If the Mets could bring Fonzi back as a utility player; 2B, SS - Cora could give Reyes and Castillo rest, and Alfonzo could give Wright a breather.
He is a quiet leader, and would be beneficial to this team.
I'd bring him back in a heartbeat.
