Former Mets reliever John Franco has signed a one year, $700,000 contract with the Houston Astros. There is no greater testament to the demand for left handed pitching than a 44 year old southpaw coming off a 2-7, 5.28 ERA campaign could command that kind of loot.
But in all seriousness, best of luck to Johnny B. Badd….finding any decent marinara sauce in Houston.
Cub fans everywhere welcome the the Captain to the NL Central. Now I don’t feel so bad about Latroy Walkins.
