'Experience' is Here!

Luis Gonzales finally puts ink to paper and signs with the Marlins. "In finalizing their one-year deal with outfielder Luis Gonzalez, the Marlins added a player with almost 2,000 more at-bats than the projected Opening Day lineup combined."

He and fellow Tampa native Carlos Tosca go way back (Tosca's father was Gonzalez's pediatrician!). Our bench coach says, ""Whether you want to call him the rudder or the mainsail, or whatever, I think guys like Luis are huge contributors to young teams. We're very fortunate to have him."

To make room on the 40-man-roster Marcos Carvajal was designated for assignment, who this blogger hopes the Mets will pick up again.
