Mets sign Cone...again

[JerseyBoy]

The best of luck to him. Always a classy guy who thought of nothing except to get the job done

Now if he does real good this year my Yanks can steal him away with 15 million and add him to their 8 man rotation

 

[T.J. Jackson]

Christ, isn't he retired yet? What is he, 58 years old?













BTW, watch out for the Cubs this year. They finally have a bullpen. LOL, been saying watch out for the Cubs forever but this year I mean it. If they suck again I will start to worship at the White Sox alter, grrrrrrr.

David Cone was great in his younger days, but he turned into the phoniest whore as his career progressed.

It was all about the Benjamins for Conie....

Cone had a nasty array during his prime...too bad that was a decade ago. I'm still waiting for the pitcher that wears one shoe and throws 180 mph (Sid Finch) to develop.

Cone is 40 now and is probably (during the 90's) resposible for the 'pitcher-for-hire' tag

He was, however, never outspoken and avoided the limelight

 

[Mountain Man]

I like the idea of brining Cone back....

He may not have the stuff of his youth...but then again...he pitiched a perfect game only 4 years ago.

He's battling for the 5th starters spot, but i doubt he'll make that...maybe a long reliever. It'll be good for the young guys who are gonna battle him for that spot. He is a class act who loves the game..

And a minor league contract is a pittance....IF he makes the team....most likely he will make the minimum...not a bad deal.


Go Mets!!!!....

You can't do any worse than you did last season
