"The Mets are moving along negotiations with Derek Lowe, reportedly with a three-year offer in the $36 million range for the free-agent pitcher (Sportsline)."
Scott Boras is looking to get Lowe a 4 or 5 year deal for about $15 million a year, and I think he will get it. Like I said before I really think this would be a good fit for Lowe and the Mets. Lowe is a very solid NL starter, and the Mets really need to do something to solidify that rotation. The Mets have already made move to improve their bullpen (K-Rod, Putz), so if they are able to add Lowe they could be in very good shape for next season (since their lineup is very dangerous). I think the Mets will eventually cave and give Lowe the 4 year deal for about $55 million.
