Mets Re-Sign Valentin?
UPDATE, 1-16-08 at 9:06am: Mark Hale of the New York Post quotes Valentin's agent saying he has a minor league deal with a Spring Training invite with the Mets. He can earn $1MM if he makes the club. The Mets haven't confirmed this yet.
FROM 1-8-08 at 2:57pm:
El Nuevo Dia is reporting that infielder Jose Valentin is close to re-signing with the Mets. He talked to several teams, but decided to take a nonguaranteed backup role with New York.
A few months ago, MLB.com's Marty Noble suggested the Mets would only re-sign Valentin if he was able to play the outfield. Valentin dealt with a partially torn ACL and fractured tibia in '07, and hopes to be 100% in February.

Luis Castillo, Rueben Gotay, Damion Easley, Marlon Anderson, and Jose Valentin. Atleast we will never be without a 2B. Maybe they are keeping him around for Reyes. Valentin was good for Reyes, he was more like a coach right next to him on the field keeping him focused. Castillo is more of a buddy to Jose. This seems silly, but having Valentin around may help keep Reyes on his game and not go into slumps like September last year.

As a sox fan, i do miss valentin. I saw many 1-4 performances from him with 3 K's and a homerun it seems. he was always able to jump about 10 ft straight up and snag a line drive. Fun to watch player who always looks like he's havin fun.
