Endy Chavez signs 2-year extention


Mlb.com is reporting that Endy Chavez has signed a new contract that will pay the reserve OF $1.8 million this year and $2.05 million next. Last season in 71 games Chavez batted .287 with 20 runs, seven doubles, two triples, a home run and 17 RBIs in 150 at-bats. Endy is one of the top reserve outfielders in the game. It is very fortunate that we got this deal done. Endy had this to say about staying with the Mets...

"I'm excited about coming back," Chavez said. "I missed so much time last year and I can't wait to be a part of things this season and help this team get back to the postseason."

Omar Minaya had this to say...

"Endy helps us offensively and defensively in a variety of ways," Minaya said in a statement Tuesday. "He plays all three outfield positions well, has good speed and has proved to be a clutch hitter for us."

That being said.. Welcome back Endy!

Welcome back.

Of course, you had to include "The Catch."
