Mets Willing To Go 4 Yrs With Ollie

Andrew Marchand of ESPN Radio reports, the Mets may be willing to go four yrs for Oliver Perez.

Here are the Highlights as reported by Andrew Marchand:

A source tells 1050 ESPN New York that the Mets will eventually be willing to go to four years for Oliver Perez. Meanwhile, the Mets have growing interest in Ben Sheets. A source says that the Mets don't think Sheets' arm is perfect, but it is not terrible either.
The source says he didn't think the Perez negotiations will be completed too soon. A red flag on Sheets, according to the source, is that he started more than 30 games last season, but hadn't done that before since 2004.

To my way of thinking, Sheets for two yrs and and option for a third is a much more prudent utilization of their resources. Ben Sheets will slot in as 1A in the Mets rotation. Imagine Johan and Sheets at the top of the rotation...SCARY!!!
