Mets brought into the Mike Lowell fray.

Besides the fact that the Mets are a large market team not sure why the Mets would be interested in Mike Lowell.

The Mets these days have had a little switch with there lineup. Now the Mets are more right handed heavy then they used to be. They were always looking for righty hitters and now with Frenchie and Bay they are now righty heavy. Lowell who would play first with the Mets would take away the lefty first baseman Murphy and just leave them way too right handed.

Of course the fact Lowell is owed 12M for this year is a deal crusher. The Red Sox would have to eat most of his salary. Now don’t get me wrong a healthy Lowell for 1 year I am sure would be better then the offense Mr. Murphy would bring to the table but Lowell being healthy of course would be a big if.

Mets will be fine with a Murphy-Jacobs-Tatis platoon. Mr Murph will get a shot and if he doesn’t produce we could see Mr Davis sometime this summer.
